Wet and Wild Field Trip

            On October 29, 2001, I went on a field trip to the Tuskegee National Forest Park and to the Mann Museum and Outdoors.  It was really fun on the way there.  It took awhile to load the bus, but it was worth the wait.

            On the bus, I sat by Gina.  We played Trouble, and we had fun.  I got mad a little, because I kept losing, but I got over it.  I let Gina play with my toys, since I played with her Trouble game.  We enjoyed playing our games.

            Soon we arrived at the Tuskegee National Forest Park.  There we learned about rivers, ponds, streams, etc.  I learned a lot about the water.  I learned that in order to have fish in your water, you need to have nutrients in your water.  The fish eat the nutrients, the bears eat the fish, other animals eat the bears after they die, so it is important to have fish in your lakes, streams, ponds, etc.

            Soon we were on our way to the Mann Museum and Outdoors.  When we got there, we ate lunch.  Some of us fed the deer, while the others ate.  Then we went inside and studied the animals.  They were huge!  I liked the Timber Wolves the best.  It was exciting!  The animals on the inside were not alive, but I still enjoyed myself.

            Well, that's what I did on the field trip.  I loved it!  I hope we go on another field trip as fun as this one.
