Have you ever wanted to go to Oregon? There are many sights and experiences to see, feel, and try, along with a rich history. It’s the year 1803. President Thomas Jefferson bought a huge swatch of land for the US, including what is now Oregon. He sent explorers to map the territory. Later, in 1840, settlers traveled up the Oregon Trail. On February 14, 1854, Oregon became the 33rd official state. Oregon may have gotten its name from the French word “Ouragan”, which means hurricane and was a…
He, sunk immediately into the mud. We, meaning Klayten, my mom, Alysen, Bo, and I, spent about 10 minutes trying to figure out how to get Colten out of the mud, that was waist deep. Colten, is 6’0”ft, all legs, with hands and feet bigger than bigfoots. So, it was quite a challenge getting him out. We found a stick, that Colten pushed up on, that kind of worked, then we tried pulling him out with the stick, that didn’t work either, until we finally used a combination of pulling with the truck…
never have met, for some unexplained event caused the dinosaurs to become extinct before the cave dwellers existed. "Natural" monsters sometimes combine human and animal features. Cat people, werewolves, and vampires fit into this category; so do Bigfoot and the Abominable Snowman. All these monsters seem to frighten us because they represent…
It was a scorching summer day at Dierks High School. The weather was sublime and and the birds were chirping. This was the most supreme day of the summer, and the day that beat all others in school. This day at school was filled with excitement, and most of all joy.

I was off to my first class,…
The Fall of an Empire The conundrums encountered by this small planet of ours are numerous; the Bermuda triangle, the Loch Ness monster, Bigfoot and many more; but none of them trumps the disappearance of a nation overnight completely engulfed the ocean, which later through the course of history came to be known as the Atlantic Ocean. Addressing the elephant in the room, Atlantis was supposed to be a work of fiction by Athenian philosopher Plato, depicted as one of the most contentious…
He describes his first experience at the school. “They stared at me, the Indian boy with the black eye and swollen nose, my going-away gifts from Rowdy. Those white kids couldn't believe their eyes. They stared at me like I was Bigfoot or a UFO. What was I doing at Reardan, whose mascot was an Indian, thereby making me the only other Indian in town?” (Alexie 56). From here, Arnold sees how others view him. He uses a simile to enhance how he feels. He realizes that, he is not some…
Ever since we could write, humanity wrote tales and legends of mythical beasts and creatures. From ancient Greek myths to more modern monsters like Bigfoot, we’ve always had this curiosity for the unknown. In the Scottish highlands, in a massive lake called Loch Ness, a creature has been the target of investigations, searches, and hoaxes. This, of course, is the famed Loch Ness monster. Called “Nessie” by some, the beast could be a variation of a classic sea serpent story. Or, as some think, the…

Hoax; a humorous or malicious deception. What is a hoax? Most people believe them to be harmless acts of idiocy such as the belief in Bigfoot, or the Loch Ness Monster. Though these are obvious examples, many critics believe the Holocaust was a hoax, but certain documents and medical autopsies prove that the genocide of over 6 million Jews was real. It is a proven fact that at one time, well over 40,000 concentration camps were in use for the execution and/or malnourishment of well over a…
