Adventures on the Flint - Part Two
Part two of our Flint River adventures was a day of meditation and poetry writing. We departed from the school that morning and drove out to the Morgan's house. They have a dock on the water surrounded by woods and all of nature's beauty. Our big literature group split in half, one riding the pontoon boat and the other staying to write poetry in the woods. We rode down the river and back for about an hour, taking pictures and enjoying the scenery. We spotted Mrs. Vicki along the way, trying to take pictures and video each group that rode down the river. Once back at the Morgan's my group all sat under the shelter because the rain had started. While there we wrote poetry about the river and the nature surrounding it. My poem was about the leaves that take a journey down the river. When the other group arrived at the dock we had a picnic lunch together under the shelter. After eating, Kaitlyn and I walked down to the water and into the woods to take some up close nature shots. Once everyone was done eating our wonderful sandwich lunch, we packed up in the cars and drove back to the school to type up our poems.
