Personal Narrative: The Cabin In Iron Mountain, Michigan

Improved Essays
Wanting to travel back in time is something many people wanted to do and can do today by visiting places that haven’t changed for hundreds of years and and see how they have changed throughout the time they have visited those places. A place that is never changing and has never changed for over 100 years is a cabin in Iron Mountain, Michigan. When out in the woods there is not much technology being used due to the cellular connection not being the best because of the trees blocking the connection. When coming from a large city, it is hard to not depend on the use of technology and living in a wooded area is a big change for me but over the time of several years it has opened my mind to greater things.

    The Midwest is home to states with rich cultural backgrounds and popular tourist attractions. To take a break from the busy schedule I have as a student, and to avoid writing more essays like this, I went on a vacation to Michigan with my mother and two siblings. We visited South Haven, a pleasant port city on Lake Michigan’s east coast, and Detroit, the famous largest city in Michigan. These areas interest me because there’s plenty to do; there are amazing restaurants, breath-taking scenery, and family-friendly, inexpensive entertainment. South Haven is famed for its relaxed atmosphere and homely feel.…

    A mixture of mud, blood, and dust coated our bodies; to my left and right, cannonballs flew at us. Though we knew not how or when we were going to succeed, we just knew that we had to succeed. Every hardship I had gone through had led to this moment, every hardship I went through had made me become this person.

    There’s a little slice of Heaven in Marshall, Texas, where the sun shines through the pines and the sound of cicadas serenade you throughout your afternoon and the lake shines like a plate of polished silver in the early morning sun. When I first came to Camp Fern, I was on my own. Everyone else had known each other for at least two years, so I was the odd one out. In my cabin there was the usual sort. There was the popular one, the attention seeker, the joker, and the one you love to hate.…

The UP (Upper Peninsula) can be considered Up North but normally it's just the UP.…

    With the recent technological advances in the scientific industry it has become evident that several hypothetical ideas are inching closer to reality. One such idea is the concept of time travel. The most familiar form of time travel is usually thought some sort of “time machine”, and the first time this idea was conceived was in the New York Sun during 1881, in a short story titled “The Clock that Went Backward”. On the other hand films like “Back to the Future” got their rise from H.G. Wells’ aptly named “The Time Machine”, the first time the notion of a vehicle was used to travel through time. Even famous writer Mark Twain popularized the concept in his story “A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court”.…
