Battle Ground was such a blast<br />
That’s why I would like to see it last<br />
That day the lake was so clean<br />
And the next time I hope I can jump<br />
with glee<br />
But now times are tough<br />
Every day presents a challenge<br />
And I hope the next time I go<br />
I won’t be sitting full <strong>of</strong> woe<br />

Girl’s Play<br />
Sitting in the shallow, frigid water<br />
Legs out in front <strong>of</strong> us<br />
Going for a ride<br />
Rushing<br />
Sliding<br />
Never quite able to avoid bumping down<br />
On the slimy moss-covered rocks<br />
Laughing<br />
Giggling<br />
Holding on to rocks along the way<br />
To try and slow the swift-running river current<br />
Attempting not to let it carry us too far down the<br />
Lewisville River<br />
Standing up in the shallow water<br />
Trying to make it back where<br />
We started<br />
Which, between the laughing, slippery rocks and the<br />
Current<br />
Was quite difficult<br />
Actually…<br />

My Trip To the Washougal River<br />
Have you ever been to the Washougal River? I have with my mom, my<br />
sister, and 5 other friends. We looked for minnows and small fish in the<br />
shallow areas near the shore. We also looked for larger fish and crawdads<br />
in the deeper areas. At the spot we were at, the deepest it got was about<br />
three feet deep, so we could see all the way down! My friends and I found<br />
a crawdad and he crawled right onto a stick next to me, so I picked him up<br />
for about a minute then put him back and let him go. The Washougal River<br />
is perfect for salmon. It has a rocky bottom, shallow areas, and the water<br />
is clear and clean. There are also rapids which keep the water moving so it<br />
stays clean. It’s really fun and I suggest you go there!<br />
