Ail ska h as n o rich farm land
You can h unt deer, moose, caribou,
and ducks too,
In the summer it gets warm
In the winter it gets cold
When you get too old to play basketball
You can do anything else you want to do
When you are feeling blue

iihen I go camping in the summer
It always seems to be so much "funner0..
Alth o when I go in the woods
I may take a spill
But it may give me more of a thrill I
And when I go camping, I like to go hunting
For a b ig fat caribou.
For as far as the river flows
I know that that’s where I belong.

I rode in a car that didn't go far
There was too much snow
To even go
So I asked a moose to, give me a boost.

On march h, I took off on a 50 mile hike.
I left the Copper Center School at 7 .*•!*.
hy first 10 miles felt like about a mile. I
walked and ra. ..s I was coming toward Gul
kana the mileposts seemed to get longer. I
was going to give up and ride back from
Gulkana, but when I got there, they gave me
a sandwich and a cup of tea. I felt better
so I thought I'd better start back just to
sec how far I could get. I walked to the
Gateway Lodge. There I started to run a
little again. I came to Simpson Hill and I
was going to run down that hill; but my legs
started to hurt. From Taslina on I walked
slowly. I came about a mile from school and
I ran aways and stopped. I came into the
school and I was surprised to hear that I
made it in 12 hours and 17 minutes. It felt
like I was gone for 2U hours!
