Pearls

If you were born in June, your birthstone is the pearl. Pearls are found in clams and oysters. However, in ancient Greece, people thought pearls came from Aphrodite’s tears. These translucent gems are typically milky white or cream, but they can also come in lavender, green, black, blue, and silver. It all depends on the oyster or clam the pearl came from and the environment in which it was produced.

A June Bride

June is known for weddings, but do you know why? In Ancient Rome, the Romans celebrated Juno, goddess of marriage, around the month of June. In the 15th and 16th centuries, June was a mouth when people first bathed after the long winter. Both traditions lead to an increase in marriages during the month. Today, over 10 percent of all weddings each year areheld during the month of June.

My rating of the Minecraft 1.17 caves and cliffs update

Hello there! Today I will be rating the new Minecraft Caves and Cliffs update.

I think that the update brings lots of new, cool stuff in the game. Lots of the stuff is not helpful, like the raw ores. They don’t work as normal ores, so it takes a really long time to find it and Smelt it in to real ore.

Even though there lots of bad thing, in my opinion there are still some pros to it, like The spyglass , which helps see things that are far away and hard to see. The lightning poles are very good for barrette and lightning fences but otherwise that’s it. Powdered snow and Crystals are good to.

For the cons, the raw ores are bad, and the other stuff is useless. It isn’t that bad, but it makes Minecraft a bit real. I don’t like that because it’s supposed to be a block video game.

It did lots of stuff to Minecraft. To make it a bit real, it made the caves more cool. I don’t even want to know why they added a goat.

In conclusion, it was a good update! I rate it three and a half stars. I hope you enjoyed, and remember this is only my opinion bye!

Father’s Day

Every June, the third Sunday of the month is all about fathers. That’s s because the third Sunday of June is when many people celebrate Father’s Day. On this day, people often give cards or gifts to their fathers, grandfathers, or other special men in their lives.

Frank Lloyd Wright

One of American’s best known architects is Frank Lloyd Wright. Born on June 8, 1867, Wright went on to design many unique homes and buildings. He loved nature and wanted his designs to fit in with their natural surroundings. His most famous design is called Falling Water. Wright built the home so that a river flowed under it and used rocks from the river to help it blend into the scenery, making it look more like a waterfall than a house.
