The Squirrel and the Dragon: A Fantasy Short Story

Once upon a time, in a little cottage atop a tall tree in a little forest, there lived a little squirrel named Chestnut. Every morning, Chestnut loved to take her little basket and go on nature walks to collect little colorful flowers in the meadows. She would make bouquets and flower wreaths and sell them at the market square. But one day, when Chestnut went on a walk to collect more flowers, she found a big black hill blocking her way. The big black hill was very strange, because instead of being covered with green grass, it was covered in black scales that shimmered in the sunlight. Another strange thing about the big black hill was that it moved up and down, almost as if it were breathing. “I don’t know how this strange hill got here,” Chestnut said to herself. “But I’ll just climb over it.” Chestnut clambered up the big black hill. It was a little difficult, since it kept moving up and down, but thanks to her determination, Chestnut managed to reach the very top. “I did it!” Chest...

Trip To Helen Georgia

My family and I went to Helen Georgia last week, and it was a nice experience. It was God who had planned this trip. He gave my sister a name and because of Him, we met this kind couple who offered to let us stay at a cabin for a couple of days. It’s amazing how God works.

My sister, who is an artist, got an art lesson from one of our hosts. My sister painted a beautiful painting of trees, and the man was generous enough to frame it for her. We now have the painting hanging up on the wall.

That same night, we went to see the Christmas lights. 



While we were there, we went to this small restaurant and bought pretzels. The pretzels were big, so we had to share with one another. 

We went back out, but it was so cold outside we couldn’t stay out long. We ended up going back to our cabin. 

The next day, we visited a town that looked like a small village in Germany. I liked the buildings, and I took a few pictures. 









We tried to find a place to eat, but it was a little difficult because most places were closed. We went to a restaurant that served German dishes before heading to a park so that my little brother could fish. The food was alright, and we also got cakes for dessert, which were nice. The most delicious things were their fries and the pretzel we got.

We went to the park, but we didn’t know how to find the lake we were trying to get to, and GPS wasn’t really helping. It also didn’t help that the service was bad. We ended up not going to the lake because the park was getting ready to close soon. We went to this other lake just so we could take a look at it.


We went back to the cabin, and that night, our hosts were kind enough to start a fire outside for us and gave us marshmallows and hotdogs to roast, along with some hotdog buns and baked beans. The hotdogs were delicious! The host even brought out a guitar for my little brother to play. The best part of the whole trip was sitting around the fireplace and talking to the kind hosts. It was very nice.




Nothing really beats being at home in your own space, but I still enjoyed the brief and small journey.
