the 3 R's

I was watching TV last night while my parents were having group. It said if you do not recycle you could lose your house because they will need more places to put garbage. I know that you can not recycle every thing but do as much as you can. In the winter, if you are cold leave the heat on what it is and get under a blanket. If that does not help, burn a fire. If you leave a room, turn off all the lights in there, even if you are coming right back. You can save a lot of a electricity and even turning off the light for 1 minute is good. Last night on nick at 9.00, every one turned off their light for 1 minute, even the Empire State Building. They said when you brush your teeth, turn off the water. So, what I meant about the 3 r's is: reduce, reuse, recycle.

one more store of mine

One day Henry and Jake Robertson were playing video games. Their dad said

“Goodbye, I am going to work.”

Henry and Jake asked “Can we go?”

“Yes, but why do you want to?”

“We want to help solve a mystery!” they both replied.

“Well, we are working on one right now. Someone is stealing items from people’s

backyards at night and we want to figure out who it is before more things are taken.”


As they walked to the car, Mr. Robertson explained that this was taking place in the

neighboring city of Dark Woods. They would go there after they first stopped at his

office and picked up a few things and talked with his boss, Mr. Jackson.


“How long have you been working on this case?” asked Henry

“About 2 weeks” replied his father

“Do you have any clues?” asked Jake

Their dad told them that they did have a few clues and that they hoped to solve the case

today.



When the three arrived at the office they went to Mr. Robertson’s office.

Mr. Jackson came in and said “I see you have your boys with you today. We can use

their help. I need to grab a few things then we can be on our way.”







The 4 got into Mr. Roberston’s car and headed to Dark Woods. They discussed

what they were going to do and who they thought the suspect was. It was believed to be

a couple of teenage boys from Lakeview, a town not far from Dark Woods.


They arrived in Dark Woods. Mr. Jackson had a list of the things that had been

stolen and the addresses. They decided to start by looking in backyards for more clues.

It was toys and tools that the thieves were stealing and. They then decided to knock on

peoples doors and talk to them and find out if they had seen anything. They did learn

that the robber had been there last night and had taken more things. They assured

everyone that they would catch the people that were doing this and wrote down the items

that had been taken last night.


After they talked to many of the victims, they decided it was time too go to

Lakeview. It was about a 5 minute drive and they talked about how much bigger the

houses in Lakeview are compared to Dark Woods. They couldn’t understand why

anyone from there would steal from people.



When they arrived in Lakeview they looked in peoples backyards. They saw

many toys, but decided these could all belong to the people that live there. But they

decided to keep looking.



After they had looked around some more and didn’t find anything they decided to

go to lunch and think.

Henry asked “Where are we going for lunch? I’d like to go to Ferren Fish.”

It was decided that is where they would go. They were all very hungry and ready for a

break. They all ordered Pepsis. Jake wanted a hamburger, Henry and his dad ordered a

fish sandwich and Mr. Jackson ordered salmon.



They discussed what they were going to do after lunch. Mr. Jackson suggested

they walk along Main Street and talk to anyone that is home. Their food came. There

wasn’t much conversation while they ate as they were all very hungry.

.

Back in the car and on their way to Main Street they decided they needed to

split up. Jake went with his dad and Henry went with Mr. Jackson. Jake and his dad

saw something that looked like an item they had on their list so they went and rang the

doorbell to talk to the owner. A young boy, about 15 answered the door and told them

that his parents were not home but would be about 5:00. Mr. Robertson told him they

would be back.




Mr. Jackson and Henry had also seen something that looked suspicious. As

they were talking to the owner of the house they found out that his 15 year old son, as

well as Joe, the kid that Jake and Mr. Robertson had talked to, had been out with 2 other

friends the night before. They were home about 9:00 but they had been acting strange.

They asked for the address of the other 2 boys and were on their way.




When they arrived at the first house they immediately saw something that had

been taken from a home in Dark Woods. Mr. Jackson introduced himself to the man and

told him that they had found items in his back yard that had been stolen from Dark

Woods.

“I didn’t steal anything!” the man said.

“We don’t think it is you, sir, we believe it is your son and his friends.” Replied Mr.

Robertson.

“We would like for you and your son to come to our office and talk about this.” Mr

Jackson told the man.

“The others will be there as well.” Mr. Robertson told him.



Once everyone was gathered, Mr. Jackson told the boys and their parents that he and

Mr. Robertson believed that the boys had been stealing things from people in Dark

Woods. The parents were very upset and the boys tried to deny everything, but in the

end they confessed. It was decided that they boys had to return every stolen item to the

proper houses and apologize. In addition they had to cut the grass of the people’s yard

all summer for free. They boys were also grounded for the rest of the summer by their

parents.




On their way home Jake and Henry thanked their dad for allowing them to go with

him today. They had had a long but productive day and were ready to go home and

relax.
