Boomer's science at the park

Boomer had a killer time today at the park!!! The weather was perfect and the scenery was amazing.  While he was exploring, he saw a beautiful statue made of marble.  Do you know what kind of rock marble is?  Boomer could not resist climbing as high as he could on the enormous statue, thank goodness he didn't get into trouble! The marble was smooth and slippery in most places, but in other places it was rough.  Why do you think that is?

After risking his life on the statue, Boomer decided that it would be great fun to play some soccer. He is so excited about the World Cup that he couldn't resist playing with a Brazilian ball.  After running around in circles, he finaly figured out how to properly kick the ball.  He relized that if he kicked the ball at the center, it would go farther.  I told Boomer that that's called physics.  What do you know about physics?

When Boomer was done exhausting himself on the soccer pitch, he decided to look at the amzing view that the park offered.  He looked past the mountains and saw dark clouds, but on our side of the mounain it was just sunny.  Boomer wondered if the rain clouds would make it past the mountains.  Do you think that they did?  Boomer stared off into the beautiful scenery and got lost in his thoughts.  Before I knew it, we were both asleep!  Thank goodness it didn't start raining on us!
