Call of the Wild 3D

Woo hoo!
We found something really cool today...a remake of "Call of the Wild" with Christopher Lloyd! (he was the professor in Back to the Future among other movies) We were on YouTube looking for a video about how to build a dogsled when we saw it.
The movie actually came out last summer, but neither one of us knew!
Mrs. Farnum went to Amazon.com and found a used one...so with shipping it's only $10.
We plan to start watching it next week. It should be here on Monday. How awesome is that?

I got a dog last month, his name is Homer. He is half Husky/half Labrador. He wakes me up
by howling. He sleeps in a house in the back yard.
Homer is a very friendly dog because he never bites or claws. He likes to shake hands and
play in the snow.

Last week Mrs. Farnum and I found a plan for a dogsled online. My mom thinks that instead of
having a bucket/bottle calf, my dad and I should build the dogsled and take that to the Fair in July.

I may be taking Homer to the Fair too. He could run the obstacle course. That would be fun.

Thanks for visiting my Blog!
Carter (and Mrs. Farnum)
