Gabriel has dogs named Rufus and Lulu, and a cranky cat named Mimi. In his free time, Gabriel likes to
play video games, play with his dogs, and read books. Gabriel has been to Chile (in South America) and
Washington, DC.
What would you do if you were trapped in a cave with a crowbar, a firecracker, a jar of peanut butter, a 7’ King
snake, and a trumpet? I would use the crowbar to try and dig my way out of the cave. Then I would use the firecracker to make the peanut butter explode in the air for a signal to rescue teams. I would use the trumpet to play some
music and the King snake would be my pet.
When Gabriel grows up, he wants to be an Army Officer. Congratulations, Gabriel, you are a superstar!
