Hi everyone, my name is Bradley. I am twelve years old, and a 7th grader at Mancelona Middle School. My hobbies are hunting, fishing, playing  baseball, football, swimming, riding four wheelers and riding my bike.

We live on a farm and raise lots of animals, including cows, pigs, chickens, egg layer chickens, a bunny, and my new puppy, A.J..

My sister and I go to Canada with my dad during the summer. They have big fish up there. We meet a lot of our friends at the campground.

We also like to hunt. I took hunter’s safety course last fall and am waiting until I am old enough to get my deer hunting license. Sometimes my grandma and grandpa, who live next door to us, call me because there are too many black squirrles, so I walk over there and scare them off with my bb-gun. We always go to the Buck Pole in Mancelona to see all the deer.

During the winter, we get a lot of snow. My friend Kyle comes over and my dad takes us ice fishing. I plow the driveway with my dad’s Kubota, and other tractors, too. I also like to ride our snowmobile (it is very old but it runs), and our four wheeler, too.

The summer of 2010 was very busy for our family. We had a lot of responsibilities at home, like gardening and taking care of the animals.  We made it to a few Tiger baseball games at Comerica Park in Detroit. It was my first time ever to a professional game. We also went to Mackinaw Island. It was my first time there. We walked alot. Almost got caught in the rain and made it off the island just as it started to downpour.

 We took one camping trip to Canada, and began working on a new cabin we are building at our hunting property.

I  hope you enjoy my pictures!
