=Battleship New Jersey Trip=

  Today on April 18, 2008 at Camden, New Jersey, our class of Mrs.Richardson, we went to the "Battleship New Jersey". The trip was informational. Our class learned about what the ship did back than. The ship had a lot of guns and war items. Like it had cannons (another word is rifles), machine guns, had small bunks, small room, and many more things that would be on a war boat. Today, we went on the ship because our teacher wanted us and her-self to learn about the ship that helped us win war.

Booker West was splashing his hands in a birdbath in his grandparents' northern Colorado back yard when the snake slithered up to the toddler, rattled and struck. Five-pound Zoey jumped in the way and took the bites.

"She got in between Booker and the snake, and that's when I heard her yipe," said Monty Long, the boy's grandfather.

The dog required treatment and for a time it appeared she might not survive. Now she prances about.

"These little bitty dogs, they just don't really get credit," Booker's grandma Denise Long told the Loveland Daily Reporter-Herald.
