My Third Day At Camp

My day started at 7:50 in the morning. I woke up, tidied up where I slept, and organized my things for the day. Afterwards, I went out to have cereal for breakfast before heading to a place where we would have internet to publish our daily journal, which we are compiling day by day. Later, we returned to the camp to gather the necessary supplies for our next destination.

In our attempt to get there, we found the access blocked by fallen trees, which led us to search for alternative routes. Eventually, we headed to a nearby small canal to collect water samples and measure its temperature. We assessed the cleanliness of the canal by observing its surroundings, which appeared to be a healthy natural environment.

We then proceeded to our next destination, which I personally enjoyed a lot because we were shown an opening leading to the snow volcano, where cold air emerges from the hole. Additionally, the river was swift and filled with many logs that formed a natural bridge, allowing us to cross the river as if it were a bridge. We also took environmental samples, assessing the water temperature and the appearance of the river.

To collect my water sample, I took it from a spot near a mini waterfall, crossing over the logs that were scattered in that area. Once all of this was done, we returned to the camp to determine the levels of bacteria in the water. We collected water and used sticks with reactive strips to determine the level of bacteria present.

After finishing, we ate tacos and then cleaned up the camp to leave it tidy. Finally, I organized my clothes for the next day as we are moving to another place. And that essentially concluded my day.

My thirteenth day at camp.

Today I woke up at 7:30 in the morning and had breakfast. After that, we cleaned all the dirty dishes, and at 10:00 AM, we started working on our poster for class. First, we worked on the methods, and then a man named Warren arrived, who is skilled at giving inspiring talks. We had the opportunity to speak with him in a circle, and it was truly moving to hear what he shared. Later, we had lunch, and after eating, we continued working on our posters, this time focusing on the results of our bacteria research. We also created a spreadsheet to classify the types of bacteria. Once the posters were completed, we took a short break. After the break, we had dinner. Once we finished dinner, we organized the used dishes and cleaned the area. Then, we took an exam and finally completed our reports. After finishing my report for today, I went to sleep.

My Seventh Day At Camp

I woke up at 6 in the morning to start preparing things for our next destination, Mitchell. Before leaving, we had breakfast and then headed to the bookstore to complete some work. There, I had the opportunity to call my family to greet them. After that, we ate in a park and visited a very interesting museum where I could learn about the life of Native Americans and the Old West era. It was a enriching experience for me, as I am not familiar with those cultures and enjoy learning about how they lived and what they did. Additionally, I observed various birds in the area and many otters in a pond. After seeing the otters, we enjoyed the beauty of the birds and then left the museum to head to Mitchell, our final destination. We were warmly welcomed, set up our tents, had dinner, I took a shower, and finally went to sleep. This was my seventh day of travel.

My Ninth Day At Camp

 My day started at 5:30 in the morning. The first thing I did upon waking up was to start organizing my things because we had to move to our next campsite. Once I finished packing my clothes, we went to have breakfast. After breakfast, we began to dismantle the tents and load them onto the camper, along with all the other things that were outside. Once we finished packing everything, we went to the cafeteria to work on the posters about the bacteria we are culturing. After working on the posters, we went to a canal to collect water samples. Then, we started loading everything to head to our new campsite. We had a long road trip ahead, and it was indeed quite a long journey. Halfway through, we stopped at a gas station to buy some supplies. After that, we headed straight to our new destination, which is called Harris Park. Once we arrived, we set up the tents and prepared everything for the night. We also unloaded everything from the camper to start cooking. Once we finished unloadi...
