Acorn People Day 1

Ron disliked his job as a counselor at a summer camp for disabled kids because he thought it was going to be fun and he thought kids would be normal. Kids couldn't go to the restroom, couldn't talk or they couldn't feed themselves.

Drug Addiction

I learned that turning to drugs can be very horrible and harmful to your health. Not only do you become addicted, you also may lose your friends and family. They began to lose trust and don't want to be around you. It is a long hard road to recover from drug abuse.

When they were about to have the party rain started pouring down on everything. They saved all of the stuff from getting wet and they rushed inside. Opal forgot about Winn Dixie and she ran outside to look for him. The preacher went with her to look for Winn Dixie. They searched everywhere and even called for him and they still didn't find him. After awhile they went back to Gloria Dump's house and they found Winn Dixie hiding under Gloria Dump's bed. He finally came out from underneath the bed and Otis played a song on his guitar for everybody. They all started to sing along. Because of the party, everyone became friends.

Stevie and Dunlap got into an argument about Otis when he went to jail and how he's a bad person to be with. Opal went to Gloria Dump's house to tell her more stories. She told Gloria Dump that Otis is a criminal because he did lots of bad things, and went to jail. She asked Gloria Dump ''Should I be scared of Otis?'' Then Gloria Dump showed Opal a tree; it had lots of bottles hanging down from it. Gloria Dump said ''This tree represents all of the things I have done wrong. '' She also said those bottles keep ghosts away. Gloria Dump told Opal that you can only judge a person by what there doing now.
