Last weekend on Saturday night me and my Dad made a weta motel.
We were waiting for the rugby world cup to start and it was only 8:00pm
and the rugby started at 9:45pm. I thought that I should build a weta motel
with all the spare time that I had. So my Dad had five pieces of driftwood
that I could choose from to build my weta motel. I choose the piece that
had lots of little holes in it so they can crawl through them. We cut the
piece of wood in half so that we could place the pieces of wood on top
of each other. My dad had a sheet of rubber so we cut it down so that
\we could screw it onto the end of the wood and use it as a hinge so that
you can open and close the lid. You can look inside and see if there are
any weta or other insects inside. To make it so that the pieces of wood will
go together we had to cut some pieces of the side so that it evenly
matched together. Today Sam and I took the weta motel up the
bush track, we covered it up with mud, leaves and sticks so that it smells
like the bush and blends in. In a few weeks time we can go back up and
see if there are any weta in there.

Awesome Luken! Great piece of writing and you are lucky you can make cool things with your Dad! We will have to go and check it out!
