Plum Island Trip
First of all, I decided to do this project because it included a trip to an island. My first thought was warm weather, the sun, the beach, and the ocean, but unfortunately we did this trip in a cold, dark and windy day. We spent most of our day at the Parker River National Wildlife Refuge, which is located along the northeast coast of Massachusetts. This refuge has it's history, it was established in 1941 for several reasons, which they are: to provide feeding, resting, and nesting habitat for migratory birds. The Parker River is huge because there is a lot to see. We kind of risked ourselves the whole time that we were there, to poison ivy and ticks, which is something that I didn't like.

She was supposed to bring the main food for us to eat in the van, so that's why I was insisting everyone to wait for her and be patience. The trip was really long. All I did was listening to music until my phone died. Then, I fall asleep thinking that if I went to sleep we were going to get there sooner, but we didn't. I like long trips, but the only thing that I don't like is to wake up very early in the morning. When I wake up, I saw that my friend was weaving. She was making a pink scarf. She told me that weaving is great for the people that have anxiety. I learned something new because I didn't know that. While we were talking, Katherine joined our conversation. That was the first time that I talked to her. I know her brother because he best friends with my partner. We talked about how Cancun is a great place to visit. I told her that I was planning to go to Cancun in the summer, and she told me that the tourist area was the same as the United States in terms of money. Then, Mary talked about when she and her friends went to Cancun in her last Christmas vacation. After that, we spent the whole trip together, which made it even nicer. After a few hours we finally got to the

    There are many places I hold dear to my heart such as traveling to the mountains, visiting my grandma or going down to the Russian River and swimming in the freezing green river. But one particular place that stands out in my memory is Mount Shastina. We have gone to Mount Shastina during times of snow and during times of intense heat, which has exposed me to different activities that depend upon the climate. I have been going there, to McCloud, which is North of Mt. Shasta, with my family for as long as I can remember. In the center of a desert lies our rustic cabin with 3 bedrooms and a nice fireplace to keep us warm.…

    Onondaga Lake Cleanup As a child, I grew up in a small neighborhood surrounded by a large forest that backed up to a section of the Erie Canal. The area was any child’s dream playground with plenty of places to hide, and explore. It is because of this that I spent most of my childhood outdoors playing with friends. In fact, it was not a rare occasion that our parents would have to drag us in for dinner, and again when it was time for bed. Many of my fondest memories up to this point come from that portion of my life, and it is because of this that I still enjoy spending time outside.…

    The leaves crunched under my black converse as I walked through the nature trail. It was a crisp fall day, too cold for short sleeves, but too warm for a heavy coat. It was Sunday afternoon, and I was trying to escape my duties at home by telling my mom I needed to get outside on such a beautiful day. I sat down on the bridge and looked down at the shining river. The water was twenty feet below me and looked about fifteen to twenty feet deep.…
