Anza-Borrego Desert State Park

By Gracee

May 2-4 2025

It was fun. 2 hour drive. Rocky and curvy.

Slept in car. I had 5 bags, including a stuffed animals’ bag.

We tried to go to Palm Trail, but we gave up then we explored a lot of different places like the Badlands. A few hours later it was lunchtime. We ate ramen and tuna. Then we went to this Cactus Loop Trail, which we also gave up.

Then we headed to Wind Cave Trail. We made it even with just a regular van. Next I got a junior ranger badge at the visiting center, and then we camped. It was VERY windy while we were setting up the tent. While I was watching Maleficent our tent broke, so my dad kept going outside and fixing it. Most people evacuated.

Next day, it was really fun, and we actually got to go to the Palm Trail.

It was a 3-hour-long hike for our family. Oh, we saw an oasis and palm trees on top of the mountain in the desert.

Then we went towards the national park visiting center to buy souvenirs. I bought a water bottle and the water bottle holder thing. It was starting to rain, so we went home early. We were supposed to go to the Slot. While we were driving, we saw something like a windstorm, so we were glad we left earlier than we planned because the windstorm was the way we were heading if we were going to the slot.

Soon, we will visit Anza-Borrego State Park again.

Badlands and Windcave are unpaved roads in the desert.

Did you see a starfish eating something?

I/Sooyoung/Grace’s mom did not know which food starfish eat. Today, I just know that shrimp is one of the foods that starfish eat. Google says that they feed on coral, sponges, clams, oysters, sand dollars, and mussels because these move slowly or do not move at all. Of course, starfish eat injured fish as well.

Pigs

Digital drawing, by Grace Moon

Pigs are very clean animals.

Contrary to popular belief, pigs are naturally very clean animals, and they wallow in mud to keep cool, not for dirtiness. 

Pigs are smarter than dogs.

 Pigs are considered one of the smartest animals on the planet, with intelligence comparable to dogs and even some primates.

 Domestic pigs can run at speeds of up to 11 miles per hour 17.7 kilometers per hour, while wild boars can run even faster, reaching speeds of up to 15 miles per hour 24.1 kilometers per hour.

In many cases, their lifespan can be up to 20 years. According to the Guinness Book of Records, the oldest pig is a 23-year-old, “Baby Jane” from the United States.

Yes, pigs, including mini pigs, can be potty trained, often using a litter box or designated potty area, and they are naturally clean animals that prefer to keep their sleeping area separate from their elimination area. 

That’s all for today!

Crested geckos 

Digital drawing, by Grace Moon

Crested geckos are solitary and should only be housed alone (but if you plan to breed it’s ok), being constantly housed with a male will often stress the female out, so it would be better to separate them for the rest of the time). Two male crested geckos will definitely fight, as can two females.

The crested gecko, often called the eyelash gecko, is a good pet for beginners because of its easy to keep requirements, and has a friendly nature.

 Crested geckos can tolerate being handled, they are generally not known for enjoying it and are more of a display pet. They are skittish and might try to jump away, so handling should be gentle and infrequent. 

Crested gecko bites are generally not painful and rarely break the skin, often feeling more like a small scratch or a pinch. 

Unlike other geckos, a crested gecko cannot regrow a dropped tail. However, your gecko won’t experience lasting harm from dropping its tail. Keeping your gecko out of its vivarium for too long can cause its body temperature to drop. Return your gecko to its tank after about 10 minutes of handling.

That’s it for today.

Hummingbirds

Digital drawing, by Grace

Hummingbirds are really fast. During courtship dives, male Anna’s hummingbirds can reach speeds of approximately 90 feet per second, which is the highest speed ever recorded for a vertebrate, relative to size. 

 Hummingbirds wings don’t have regular bird wings. Hummingbirds have a unique joint where their wings attach to their sternum, allowing for a highly efficient rotational movement, further enhancing their agility. Hummingbirds are incredibly agile, capable of flying backward and even, for brief moments, upside down. 

Hummingbirds have a fast metabolism. Hummingbirds have an exceptionally high metabolism, allowing them to burn a massive amount of energy to sustain their rapid wingbeat and flight, with the exception of insects, they have the fastest metabolism of any animal.

A Girl Sleeping

School writing, by Grace, November 1, 2024

one of pictures drawn by Harris Burdick

In April.12.1995.…a girl is sleeping peacefully on her bed while holding her journal 

There’s something watching her from outside. She probably was writing in her journal before she was sleeping. Her arm looks broken but it isn’t. The lamp is so bright…so bright like there’s a monster controlling it. And the lights are all on what is going on…Something is going to happen but what?

Wait there’s something in the book…v-vines what does this mean…the full moon is out it’s so bright just like the light. But what is it? Something else is happening. There’s something under the bed, it’s round and it has eyes. Wait, is it a bed monster? No it can’t be. Back to the book, the book is called Creepy Stuff. She’s s-shaking in her bed. Is it because of the book???

“Umm what I’m getting taken away help me. Wh-where am I. My head hurts. I’m getting tired.” When she sleeps a hand appears and takes her away. 

“Breaking News…our best spy has disappeared…she was never to be found again.”

10 years later on May 7 2005…a detective finds the body of the spy in an abandoned house with blood covered in the closet. Her closest relatives wanted to see her so they went in to the abandoned house but they died there no one knows why they died but only ONE PERSON KNOWS BUT THEY DON’T EVEN KNOW IF ITS TRUE BECAUSE HAPPENED IN A DREAM WHEN SHE WAS YOUNG!!!

Hamsters

Digital drawing, by Grace

Hamsters make great pets. They are also great companions too. There are four kinds of species that you could adopt. One of them is the roborovski dwarf hamster. They are dwarf hamsters that are smaller than average, but they still do need a big cage so they can dig.

Hamsters need to dig because in the wild their nests are in the ground and they dig them and lots of hamsters can’t get that enrichment a normal hamster will. They will have to have at least 8 inches of litter. They have to have a big cage so they can dig.

The cage size should be really big, not those pet store ones. Maybe if you’re going to buy one then buy an aquarium from a pet store or you could DIY one with wood and glass you could buy the niteangel stuff too.

Hamsters are solitary animals they like to live alone and if they don’t, they might mate or fight… fighting is dangerous for every animal. If you don’t want baby hamsters then do not put a male and female together.

Here is a list you have to buy to have a hamster… litter, wheel,  food, platforms, water bowl, enrichment toys, and of course, a cage

Bye, see you next time!
