The Knot-Hole

 Jem and I keep finding gifts in the knot-hole outside of the Radley place. We can't figure out where they are coming from but we believe they are for us because if we don't claim them nobody else does either. We found soap in the knot-hole and many other gifts as well. We walk past this tree everyday after school and there is always new gifts for us. I wonder who keeps putting them there.

First Purchase, Calpurnia's Church

When I visited Calpurnia's church I experienced a lot. For example, I saw black people being rude toward us white kids, instead of the usual attitudes toward black people. I also experienced church in a different way then I normally do. For example, Reverend Sykes, of First Purchase Church, speaks for the whole congregation instead of speaking just for himself. Cal's church runs differently compared to my normal church and I was able to learn from this. My overall experience helped me learn a lot about different people and different customs. Therefore, I became more outgoing from this trip. I experienced a lot when I visited Calpurnia's church.
