A national park is a place where people love to site see and acknowledge how our country has made a specific location to be protected. As well as why we protected national parks, such as endangered species. I always thought on this and that I will help protect the life of nature, and it’s precious life. Joshua Tree National Park has its perks and downfalls in many ways. Which is why I love the desert. The scorching heat on your skin from the sun, dry lips and the cold icy water hitting it going down your throat, hydrating yourself. The prickly bushes and trees hurt as you walk into it somehow, the dry dirt that is rough on your skin when you fall and hurt yourself leaving a multiple scratches with dirt in it.

California is a really great state to live in and my memories here is amazing. The main memory that I remember the most is when I spent my time at the Joshua Tree National Park, rock climbing and hiking. As well as memories that I was rock climbing and hiking at random places in the Mojave Desert. One memory when I was rock climbing/ hiking is when me and my older brother almost stepped on a adult diamondback rattlesnake. Luckily it was at the crack of dawn and winter where you can see your breath and feel the brisk cold, thus the snake was sunbathing and didn’t pay attention to us. My brother and I did not see it, but my father saw it and told us that we almost stepped on it. It was scary thinking that if either one of us stepped on the snake that we wouldn’t want to know what would happen. My father is kinda crazy in the mind, as much as wanting to show us how the snake attacks. Then he grabbed a stick started poking the deadly snake. The outcome is not what we expected. The snake decided to rattle and it’s head raised. You can hear the loud rattle and hisses and see the snakes fangs as it opens the wide jawed mouth. It did not want anything with us at all and went another direction than us and it was never seen

I hope the federal government makes the right decision on making this a National Park. Come on, it would be amazingly exciting, and it would bring more money to our country if you thought about it. I thought the government was all about the people? If so, think about the people this time and make this
The snake seems to be put as the victim when Patric describes it as being calm while watching the man. The way Patric uses his words can be interpreted in many different attitudes to whoever is reading it.
Over the summer about two weeks after school ended, my friends and I were hiking. My friend told us to rest on the rocks on our way to a cave. While we were resting on the rock we had a rattle and dint know what it was until it was near my friends foot. The rattlesnake was near my friends foot and when it rattle we looked around and saw the snake and we ran before it bit any of us. My friend ran so fast down the hill and ran for long time even though we were long gone from the snake.
America now has 84 million acres of National Parks. The national parks follow the democratic idea that the natural wonders of the land should be available to all and not just the rich or privileged The story of the national parks is one of sacrifice by those willing to devote their lives to the preservation of these natural wonders in America YOSEMITE Yosemite was discovered in 1851 by Lafayette Bunnell. He mistakenly named it Yosemite thinking it was the name of the local Indians but the word really meant, "They are killers.
The snake is being protective and not offensive towards the man. The snake gave careful warning to the man that he did not want to fight while “He lay there like a live wire … calm watchfulness”. This represents his attitude towards the man, as the snake is showing mercy to the man. It looks as if the snake is the one who is dangerous. The snake had no intention of hurting the man; He was trying to spare the man’s life.
Statement of intent I intend to make a modern responsive website to promote Yosemite national park. This website is intended for people with a general interest in the park. The website that is created should use a simple colour palette and should be simple to navigate single scroll website. Research One source of inspiration for my website is the original Yosemite national park website (https://ww w.nps.gov/yose/index.htm).
President Roosevelt said “The time has come to inquire seriously what will happen when our forests are gone.” is one of the examples how President Roosevelt ’s and John Muir’s camping trip in Yosemite supported their goal to preserve nature. Some of the reasons how they supported their goal to preserve nature are they admired the place. Also, they fought for nature. Finally, they spent time in nature.
In the testimony before the House Committee on the Public Lands on June 1913, Pinchot (an advocate for conservationists) stated that “the use of the park will be enormously increased” (Pinchot and Raker 2). This means the the ability to have multiple use of the land can allow the government to create more than just an attraction site, but also create activities and different things people can do there for a price. Also in the testimony before the House Committee on the Public Lands on June 1913, Pinchot also stated that “the national park will be visited by a very large number of people who cannot visit them now” (Pinchot and Raker). This gives government the opportunity to make money, because people would pay money in order to see the beauty of the land now that it is cleared up.
The Oregon Trail didn’t follow a single set path. While most Oregon bound emigrants traveled a route that passed by landmarks in Missouri Kansas Wyoming and Oregon there was never just one set of wagon ruts leading west. Frontier explorers and fur trappers blazed the rough outlines of the Oregon Trail in the early 19th century, but the route was initia considered too demanding for women, children or covered wagon to navigate. That year Marcus helped lead the first major wagon train of around one Thousand Settler along the Oregon trail an exodus now know as the great migration. Traffic soon skyrocketed and by the late 1840 's and early 1850 upwards of 50 thousand people were using the trail each year.
He began to remember that day, when Jesus took a rest beside his house, with a great wooden cross rested in his shoulders. He remembered how Jesus spoke to him: Jesus was not furious. His face is sad and his eyes did not show hatred as he continued walking. Then, he recalled something: something his mind suppressed him to recall, There was a snake who followed Jesus as I walked from my house... it hid under the shadow of the cross.
The Grand Canyon is a notable topographic feature in Northern America. It has nearly 2, 000 meters of rock layers exposed on the surface with twelve major rock units and occupies a region of broad continental crust. Despite its vastness, how it exactly became as it is now remains a question to scientists who study the area. The Grand Canyon is located specifically at the southwestern edge of the Colorado Plateau in Arizona.
The cool, upland air, flooding through the everlasting branches of the lively tree, as it casts a vague shadow onto the grasses ' fine green. Fresh sunlight penetrates through the branches of the tree, illuminating perfect spheres of water upon its green wands. My numb and almost transparent feet are blanketed by the sweetness of the scene, as the sunlight paints my lips red, my hair ebony, and my eyes honey-like. The noon sunlight acts as a HD camera, telling no lies, in the world in which shadows of truth are the harshest, revealing every flaw in the sight, like a toddler carrying his very first camera, taking pictures of whatever he sees. My head looks down at the sight of my cold and lifeless feet, before making its way up to the reaching arms of an infatuating tree, glowing brightly virescent at the edges of the trunk, inviting a soothing, tingling sensation to my soul.
From walking your dog, to playing with your kids, the park is the perfect place for endless outdoor activities and events. The park is a door to escape the harshness of the world and return to reality with a new mind set on the world. Most public parks offer amazing sceneries of nature from plants and trees to wildlife. The presence of nature warms my heart bringing relaxation and peace upon my body and
It all started on a summer day, I went to nags head beach with my family. We got a big beach house with my whole family and a few friends. This was about 4 years but it feels like it was just the other day. We went at the very end of the summer. It was still nice and warm outside.
