Every year, my family goes on a snowmobile trip with my friend Aftyn’s family in Spearfish, South Dakota. About two years ago, we drove out for our trip as usual. The first day was super fun. We stopped at Four Corners, a fun hill to climb, and we did lots of racing. The second day was a little more eventful.
It was a nice summer day,July, 2014. I woke up really early, around 6 a.m. My parents had to pick up my uncle and his girlfriend because they were coming with us. It was a long drive. The drive was about two hours.

It’s about six hours since you left for Arizona . The way things have been, I know you wouldn’t have expected me to come to see you off. I was so focused on getting by on my own in the city, I didn’t realize how much I missed being with friends. And it was only today I realized how much I’ve missed you. You were my best friend for as long as I can remember, and it’s been almost two weeks since I last talked to you.
Coyotes. I made some friends from trails but I didn’t get to talk to everybody in trails. After a few days I made some new friends, but my habits came in. I forgot some their names. I wasn’t able to recognize their names.

A Montana Fishing Trip As we walked down to the river, the birds were making a whistling noise, and it was quite annoying because the birds were so loud Will and I could barely hear each other. When we were walking down to the river on a rock that was on the path was a famous quote from Muhammad Ali and it was about the river and it said “Rivers, Ponds, Lakes, and Streams - they all have different names, but they all contain water.

Growing up in The Woodlands, Texas, you hear the phrase “bubble” a lot. People around me have always complained about the narrowed point of view of our town by painting a picture of designer bags and dance moms encapsulated inside plastic borders. When I was younger, I used to keep the idea in the back of my mind, not sure how to feel about it, but the older I get, the more I understand my community’s gripes. The first time I discovered the truth behind that image was a trip to visit my family in Green Bay, Wisconsin around the age of 13.
It was Saturday morning, and as usual I was up getting ready to go hiking. Every other Saturday I go hiking with my dog, Dell, who is really hyper. He loves going, and sometimes he will even wake me up. The place we go to hike is called Red Stone Hiking. It is a really popular place in the state of Georgia.
