Our Best Summer Days

Earlier this fall I asked each of the kids to write about their favorite activities this summer. Here is what each of them wrote:

Prineville Reservoir by Mesa

This summer my family and I went boating with some of my dad’s friends and their families at the Prineville reservoir. We boated for about four hours. A lot of the older kids decided to wake board and I wanted to wake board also but I didn’t have my swim clothes on. After about two hours we got out and swam for a bit. After boating some more we headed back to the dock. Then we swam in a sectioned off spot of the reservoir. After that we ate lunch at a picnic table and watched the cute little chipmunks run around. The little chipmunks would flatten themselves on the ground to hide from people, but they were also very curious. ~By Mesa

Jack Creek by Kasen

This summer we got to go to an amazing little spring called Jack Creek. It’s about a half an hour past Sisters. When we got there we started at a little picnic area. From there we hiked a half a mile to the springs. The trail goes right up to the head of the springs. We even got to drink from them. It’s amazing to see the water trickling from holes in the hill. ~By Kasen
