My Tree!


Maple Tree: Woodstock, NH
The tree that I will be observing over the semester is the maple tree to the left side of the river. This is a picture of the Pemi River. This river runs through the backyard in my hometown in Woodstock, New Hampshire. This is one of my favorite trees to look at, especially during the autumn season. Looking at the vibrant red and orange leaves makes me the happiest guy in the world! Before the season started to change, the tree had no leaves on it. It just has sticks and twigs coming off of the tree. As days and weeks went on, red leaves began to appear on the ends of the branches. From that moment on, I knew that this tree was going to grow bright and beautiful leaves. I was right. Every year this same tree shows off its natural beauty. Throughout the autumn season, many of its leaves gently fall to the ground, making me clean up after them. You can see many of these trees all over New England. Except this specific tree has always been there for me, especially when I need to lean on it to take in the gorgeous view of the river. When it gets closer to the winter season, I always grab at least one of its leaves's to keep for my collection. It is really amazing looking at how the color may change each year, that just puts a smile on my face. This tree may be far away from Keene to observe but it will always a piece of my heart.

Application Assignment #1: This Land Is the Only Land There Is

Source of Article:  This Land Is the Only Land There Is Earth Warming The article " This Land Is the Only Land There is ," portrays the realization that we have a problem, we as a society need to seek change. We as humans living on this earth, don't understand that the planet's dangerously warm future is upon us. Robinson Meyer, explains that the earth's landscape has already warmed than 1.5 degrees Celsius since the industrial revolution. The land that we use on earth is extremely scarce, we need to use it for everything and we are already using most of it. Roughly more than 70 percent of the planet's ice free land is already shaped by human activity. There must be changes that happen quicker that you think because land problems have a pesky way of spreading diseases to different areas around the globe. How do we obtain land? First off, we as humans need land for planting and reusing the materials that need to be put back into the earth for growt...

Spend Some Time In Nature!

Elbow Pond: Woodstock, New Hampshire The place I went and explored for this blog post was at an Elbow Pond in Woodstock, NH. I went there with some of the few friends I graduated high school with because we enjoy coming here and spending time with nature, especially when I begins to snow. I would suggest this for people to come to but it is really difficult and dangerous to drive out to the actual pond itself. This is the outside of the pond, we couldn't go any further because the gate was closed for the winter season. In terms of animals, we saw a couple of deer tracks in the snow but not a lot of people because no one lives in these neck of the woods, unless you are risky enough to do so. I have been here some many times, I can't count them on my hand! I love coming here just to relax and enjoy the natural beauty our earth gives us. When we got there, we of course took many pictures of sun setting sky and after that we just talked about life and how we are all doing ...

What Makes me Happy!

What makes me happy? People ask my this question almost everyday of my life. I always say the same response; family, friends, and life. Seems kind of corny right? Well it's the truth. There is nothing more than being apart of a loving family. They all encourage me to try my best at anything I am doing whether it's sports or studying for my next exam. My friends on the other hand, have been there for me when I am at my worst points in life. Always there for me when I need a shoulder to cry on. They truly put a smile on my face whenever go camping, hanging out, or going on crazy adventures in the deep New Hampshire wilderness. Being able to live my life on this beautiful earth makes me feel happy, even on my darkest days. There are many tremendous places to visit on this earth, you just have to go out and experience this first hand. That's the real beauty about nature. Experiences, moments, and memories are key components to living in such a god giving land. My pictures have ...
