Weather Story

When Carmen, Joe-Joe, Joel, Victor, and I were coming home to Marshall from Hooper bay. The pilot got lost. It was starting to rain and we couldn't see the ground because the clouds were in the way. Carmen and Joel started to sleep. I began to have an earache in both of my ears. We saw a fish camp or a two. I was thinking it was Marshall but when we got close I realized it wasn't Marshall. The pilot couldn't see at all and he went higher and higher. When the clouds went away we saw the other plane which had Renee, Henrietta, Mr. and Mrs. Adams and the pilot. We followed the other plane and finally we made it home. At first we went before the other plane, but it passed us when we got lost and then we followed it to Marshall. We landed five minutes after the other plane The time was 4:15 and the other plane landed 4:10. The school driver, Leo drove all of us home. After that the rain stopped.
