Spiral Jetty

Hi everyone! Happy New Year!

I went to Utah during winter break and wanted to share some photos with you guys!

I got a chance to see Spiral Jetty, a giant work of art that an artist named Robert Smithson created in the Great Salt Lake in 1970. He used a bunch of trucks to put tons of lava rock into the shape of a spiral at the edge of the very salty lake!

Here we are levitating over the salt flats.

When the water evaporates, you can see huge salt crystals.

Here is a cute cow I met on the road to Spiral Jetty!

I also got to see the “golden spike”. The “golden spike” is the ceremonial spike used to connect the first transcontinental railroad across the United States. This is the place where the railroad from the east coast finally connected to the railroad from the west coast!

The cheese from the cheese contest finally arrived! It’s going to go bad by the end of summer but I will buy more for you guys. I found out they sell it at Whole Foods. The name of the creamery is Cowgirl Creamery.

I went to the coolest candy shop the other day in TriBeCa. It’s called Papabubble. They make lots of weird shapes out of candy! Look at their website and you will see they make candy teeth and candy glasses!

Summer Vacation!

After school on Wednesday I drove to Baltimore with Jared and we ate a giant pile of crabs! They were so good!

We got to see this school bus that was decorated with tiles and mirrors at the American Visionary Art Museum

Here is a bakery I went to that makes giant cakes! Some cakes cost $3,000! The bakery was called Charm City Cakes. I was not able to taste one, sadly.
