Gypsies/ momma throws rocks at racoons







We have a beautiful gypsy cart, made, and designed by our family. Just recently we moved it to a shady spot in our yard. I suddenly realized everyone in my family has had a delightful camp out in the gypsy cart, except for me. So, I asked my sister, imagination girl, to sleep out with me in the gypsy cart. Of course she said "yes." We got quite adventurous and decided to dress up in scarves, bangles, big rings and and flowy night gowns, and pretend we were real gypsy girls. We were silly and talkCheck Spellinged until it was really late. Just as we were finally drifting off to sleep we heared a bunch of raquet outside. I was half asleep, forgot I was in the gypsy cart, and thought, "wow, Imagination girl's bird is really loud." Then Imagination girl sprang out of bed, (I was now awake for real). We both rushed to the window to see daddy jump out the door of the house, flashlight in hand, and momma right behind him. Imagination girl and I ran out to see what was going on, I was asking "what is it?" Imagination girl said, "racoons." Momma and daddy were shining the flashlight up into one of the trees by our creek. "I'll get the gun and shoot it." Daddy said "No!" momma cried. "You ca't even tell where it is up there!" Momma picked up some rocks out of the driveway and chucked them into the tree, "get out of here!" Daddy mention the gun again, but momma said "no, just throw rocks at them." We all laughed. Imagination girl and I went back to the gypsy cart, carefully locked the door, and went to sleep. I guess two racoons decided to have a show down in our yard last night, I hope they can work out their differences someplace else from now on!
