Can you believe it's Thursday already? This week is sure going by fast! I went to a bonfire lastnight, with some people from the church. It was pretty fun! I brought the hot dogs, and buns. But it was hard to cook anything over the fire, cause it was soooo hot. The guy, who's house it was at, just kept throwing everything and anything he could that would burn. Including treated wood, old palates, and an old desk. I'm glad I cooked my food when the fire was just cut logs. And some of the people were wondering why the flames were green. Well, you put all that stuff on there, and the chemicals in the wood, made the fire burn hotter, and also made the flames green. But it was a good time, to just sit and listen to some of the music they were playing. And my friend Emily brought her didgeridoo. It's an instrument from Australia. I got pretty good at it. I was one of the only ones who could play it. So yeah, well here's another interesting fact for you:

Only one of the 262 Popes has been English. The most commonly used name is John (23 times). The oldest Pope was Adrian I elected at 80 years of age. The youngest was Benedict IX at 12 years of age. The longest length of Pontificate was Pius IX who reigned for 32 years. The shortest was Stephen II who reigned for 1 day.

Have a great day!!
