The Mountain

The Mountain.

Grab all you're cats and dogs any pet of yours board up the windows because if you dont you will never see the light again..

My grandad had just been released from prison when he was younger so he needed a job to get back on his feet. He saw a job open which was mining blowing up holes in the mountain and then seeing if there is anything worth in it, the health risks were high but so was the pay.

My grandad got the job and after a couple of days of doing the same thing again and again, one day something happened. As they blew a small hole in the mountain, they sent the smallest man into the hole.

His name was Jim, as they lowered Jim, they heard him say " Hey! There's a growling noise down here... is that normal?" His voice echoed "that's just the mountain rumbling! you're fine." said Bill, one of the older workers.

A while later Jim yelled "Oh my god! pull me up! it's gonna get me!"
"You're fine-"
"Wait! what if he's really in trouble!?" said my grandfather and immediately started to pull Jim up but the rope was so heavy like something was pulling on it. Jim's screams echoed in their ears as they all launched back like the rope was so light now.

They pulled the rest of it up only to see fresh blood on the other end.. Bill looked down the hole and said "ew gross smells like rotten meat in there." his eyes widened as he heard a loud growl "oh my god.. RUN!!!" everyone ran to the truck except my grandfather, he had to know what Jim saw he just had to..

He says that this was the biggest mistake of his life... as he looked down the hole he saw a disfigured human with what it looked like it's skin peeled of and drowned in blood, it had giant black horns slits for eyes and razor blade spikes where it's mouth was men't to be..

he ran to the car and when they got back everyone yelled to the manager "wait wheres Jim?" he asked

"In the mountain" said my grandfather, "Okay let's go back to the mountain and see what this is all about."
"fine but only under one condition"
"Whats that?"
"we have at least ten armed men come with us" so my grandfather the manager and ten armed men went to the mountain. but when they all looked at the hole they saw a blood trail turning from a trail to footprints all the way to town...`

First Flight Test

On Wednesday we had our first flight test with our ambassador Lincoln.
To launch a rocket we need the following equipment.

If you do want to make a bottle rocket you will need a bike pump, 1.5L bottle, water, safety glasses, launcher, pressure gage and a measuring jug.
then take it to a safe place to launch like the field. but make sure it's away from people, building's, trees and animals.                       
         
After we set up the rocket the teacher only got a couple of people who were apparently standing nicely, to go up and help launch it.
we were all standing on the concrete as we counted down from 10.

and as soon as we got down to 1 the rocket launched up into the sky, no it didn't it didn't even come of the ground but 10 seconds later it luckily and finally launched of the ground. that was the first one out of four and it had 10psi- 250ml.

The next one which was launch two we didn't have a delay, and it had 30psi - 200ml.
third one same as the second one didn't have a delay, and it had 45psi- 200ml.
and the last one was the highest one no surprise there and this one was 45psi- 350ml.
