Summer Activities
Many of you have done interesting activities this summer or taken trips to new and different places. Or maybe you did the same vacation that you do every year that you remember and there is something extremely special about that for you. My family used to go to Clear Lake every year when I was a kid and I loved the excitement of coming around the bend in the road and seeing the lake after hours and hours and hours of hot driving. My brother and I had a little boat (a little bigger than a bathtub) with the tiniest motor, but we were allowed to drive around the slough on our own. We went fishing for blue gill with kernels of corn (not messy like worms), and brought home frogs we gigged for my mom to fry at night. We even waterskiied in the slough behind our little boat (both of us were lightweights). Anyway, did you get a little picture of my childhood summer vacations? Think about what you did this summer and see if you can describe it. I’m waiting to hear from you!
