Welcome!!!
Blogging is a whole new adventure for me!! I am happy you are here. My next travel adventure is a section hike of the Appalachian Trail. I will be helping my friend get started on a 2,100 mile hike from Georgia to Maine.
World War II Skype Lesson
Fabulous lesson from the World War II Museum in New Orleans! They helped us examine political cartoons by Dr. Seuss, answered questions and gave us a tour of the museum.
Good luck on your trip
ReplyDeleteThanks! I think I've packed everything I need and my pack weighs 37 pounds. I heard they have snow at the trailhead.
ReplyDeleteO no i hope every thing goes well
ReplyDeleteHow many miles will you be hiking on your section hike of the trail?
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of wildlife do you hope to see on your hike?
ReplyDeleteI know there are black bears in the area. I'll have to hang my food and toothpaste in a tree every night to keep the bears from getting it. Also, there are deer, raccoons and lots of birds. I plan to hike between 50 and 100 miles before heading home.

ReplyDeleteHey Mrs. Sparks!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's your favorite student, Maggie Eames!!!! I had a question. You said that you would tie up your things in a tree, but you also said that there were black bears in the area, and black bears can climb trees. What if the black bears get to your things? What would you do? Well I hope you have an awesome trip backpacking!!! Good luck on your hike!!!! Have a good spring break!!!!
Your favorite student,
Maggie Eames :)
Maggie, what a great question! Yes, black bears can climb trees. I will have to hang the food far enough away from the tree trunk and far enough down from the branch while still keeping it far enough off the ground to keep it away from the bears. It will be tricky and I REALLY hope I do it right.
