Blue Springs Park Research Paper

Decent Essays
In the trove of memories that I have from the visits to Florida, one in particular stands out. One day when we visited in June we went to Blue Springs park. It had crystal clear water so you were able to see 40ft to the bottom. After swimming in spring water for a while we rented canoes and went down the river it was connected to. We had enough fun after a couple hours and we were about to finish the day off by jumping off a 5ft ledge into the 40ft deep water. It started to storm as we were jumping but, we continued for a little while longer before we decided to head to my uncle’s house.

    In one hike you can get it all: redwood groves, wildflower-filled meadows, rocky outcroppings, cascading creeks and sweeping views. This is Sonoma County at its best, the Pomo Canyon Trail, a 4.5-mile stretch between a wooded campground and Shell Beach. Naturally, unless you bring two cars, enjoying the entire trail would cause you to rack up nine miles. If you start at the Pomo Canyon Campground, you might have to add another mile, as when I hiked it, the campground was closed, and I do not know if it is permanent or seasonal.…

    When I would go to Florida, there was this Manatee place that we would go to that saved Manatees. You could go onto this board walk and look into the ocean at the manatees and watch them swim, it was really cool. But one thing I really loved about it was that they named the manatees and if they were hurt they would nurse them back to health. It wasnt a big place, kinda small. There was a power plant right next to it and that worried a lot of people because of the manatees but the power plant was a solar power plant which was cool.…
