We went to the North Rim of the Grand Canyon. It was ok, but I was expecting a little bit more. While we were there we went on a hike and we saw deer on the hike. It was the closest I’ve ever been to deer because they didn’t run away.

Then we went to Zion National Park in Utah. When we were at the campground me and Jackson got to go swimming. We went on a big climb. It was sort of a hike at first because we had to get to the bottom of the climb. We got to see petroglyphs on the way. There were also little ponds with tadpoles and a frog. It was really hot there. Me and Jackson got to play in the river at our campsite. We got to make sandcastles. The water was really cold. But when we got our hands in for a while we got used to it.

Now we’re driving to Lake Tahoe to meet my aunt and uncle, Annie and James, and my cousin, Hazel. They live in Alaska.
Hi Anna- Great new post! I love the tadpole pools- they are just like the pools in Waterville that we call The Tubs- they are just like big round bathtubs carved into the rock in the river. I think it's from pebbles swirling around for maybe hundreds of years! I like to sit in them on really hot days.
ReplyDeleteI am going to let our tadpoles go today or tomorrow. They all have their back legs now and one even has front legs.
We'll look at your post on the smartboard soon. Just two more days of school! Love from Mrs. B.
