Over the Summer my family, the Whitalls and the Corneliuses went to the Homestead. The Homestead is a fresh water resort on Lake Michigan. One Night at the Homestead, Aidan, James, Kyle, me, Zane, and all the dads climbed the ski slope very late at night. The night was cloudless and we could slightly see the Milkyway. We saw the big dipper, a lot of satellites, a big flash of light that one of the dads thought was a quasar, and two shooting stars. We even saw Saturn or Mars.

We stayed up there for 20 minutes and then came down. We hadn't brought flashlights up and by the time we went down it was pitch black and the start were shining incredibly bright. By then we could see the spiral of the Mlikyway very well. Mr. Cornelius turned on these wolf calls from his phone so it sounded like there were wolves all around us. All the boys had a race to the bottom of the hill, but since the grass was fake and wet it got very slippery and Kyle and I fell and got dirty. We reached the bottom and went back to the Whitalls cabin to hangout a bit. After and hour or so we went back to our own cabins and then went to bed.
