Sarah Wolfe’s Blog Part 2



This blog is on our Texas expedition. This is our second trip of our four-month session. Now we only have three trips left to go, these two weeks went by fast. Here are my favorite parts of this trip.
My first favorite part was Big Bend National Park. The nights we spent there were very cold. So we all bundled up and used our bivy sacks to get nice and warm. This time we didn’t do very long hikes like the ones we did at the Grand Canyon. I had an easier time with the hikes thanks to my new hiking poles.
My second favorite part was the hot springs. When I touched the water it felt so warm. Once I had my whole body in the water, I felt so relaxed. During the whole time we were there, I thought about how cool it would be if my family was there.
My last favorite part was going to the McDonald Observatory. I enjoyed looking and learning about the different stars. It was really cool to use one of the telescopes to see the moon up close. It was interesting to learn that we see satellites during the nighttime.  

Even though we had cold weather while we were at Texas we still had a good time. We are going to California next. I can’t wait to go. We will have sunny days to enjoy. We will be going to a beach. We will also go to the home I’m planning to move to with my boyfriend when I’m older, that place is LA.
