I love the summer,

When the green trees blow,

And the sound of the wind is whistling in my ears.

I love the grills, and the taste of hamburgers in the afternoon,

The smell of the sweet hay as I drive past the farms with the windows opened,

And hearing the sound of the cows grazing upon the fields.

I love to hear the hooves of the horses

And the sights of the great mountains,

And the dawn of a new day with colors like scented orange

And light pink mixed in.

I love the sight of the great rivers as I canoe

And as I wade through the water.

The minnows tickle my toes.

I love when I jump into a pool,

And the chill water reaches from my nose to the tip of my toes.

Now fall has come,

But I will remember summer.

 

1. Mule deer are cousins of the black-tailed deer and the white-tailed deer.
2. Mule deer have fuzzy antlers, which is not like the other kinds of deer.
3. Mule deer are bigger than their cousins.
4. Mule deer can migrate about 150 miles in two days!
5. Mule deer are found in the flat plains where the bison live.
6. Mule deer have white chins.
7. Mule deer do not run, but they “pront”, which is a kind of jumping running where they land on all fours.  That is how they move around.

The Tunbridge Fair was amazing, and not just any kind of amazing.  It was truly amazing in all ways!  It was a gift from God.

My favorite thing was the army men.  They showed us how to work a musket, and they showed us how to put the bullets in the gun.  They showed us the gunpowder and even how to clean the gun so it is ready to shoot.  They also showed us how to take the pointed end of the gun off.

I wish to go to the Tunbridge Fair again.  I will never forget our day.

I hope to be a national park ranger.

It’s okay to explore the world.

It’s okay to watch the trees when the wind blows.
