Into the Wild - Soujourn Vacation!
Into the Wild makes me want explore and journey to the places I have always wanted to go. One place that I just found out about is Mt. Desert Island, Massachusetts. Mt. Desert Island is part of a national park, Acadia, the first one on the East side of the USA! It is actually home to many different things. It has mountains carved from glaciers, beautiful lakes, and the only fjord on the East side of the Mississippi River. It is also home to the highest mountain East of the Mississippi River, the Cadillac Mountain. You can get to Maine by boat, car, plane, and all other types of transportation. Acadia has moderate temperatures from 10 degrees F in the Winter to 80 - 90 degrees F in the Summer. It rains slightly more often in Maine than it does in Maryland, so be prepared but do not only pack rain suits.

Jon,
ReplyDeleteGood blogging for quarter 3 so far. You have completed all of the required posts. You just need to "beef up" your writing with intersting details that make the posts come alive for the reader. Also, you need to proofread your work more and fix the careless typing/grammar errors. These errors hurt the quality of your ideas. Keep working hard, and that island in Mass. looks awesome!

I liked the place you chose to go to because it looks very unique. This place looks very interesting. Some of your blogs are short, but they give good detailed information. Good job with your 2nd semester blogs so far.
