past experiences that have shaped the way I live my life, but the one that I always think about is when I fell through the ice when I was little. Ice fishing was a huge part of my life when I was little and it still is today. Some of my greatest memories are from ice fishing. My dad and I would usually go every Sunday and listen to the vikings game on the radio while in our ice house. On this Sunday, nothing was different; My dad, my cousin Chris, and I all got up early to see if we could catch…

As the ice recedes in the warmer climate, polar bears will migrate hundreds of miles to find food or a new home. On the other hand, the Komodo dragon prefers to spend most of their time on dry land. There habitat can range from tropical dry forest to a savanna to a monsoon forest. The giant lizard can always…

The way we found out about Colin was through our other friend who used to play with us and his dad played with Colin Chalk. Now all I can think about is getting on the ice. The camp was from Monday to Friday for nine hours. We had to bring lunch and a snack. The schedule each day was to arrive at 8:30 AM, go on at 9:00…

Imagine a rocket, specifically molded, perfectly symmetrical, prepared to do it’s job exactly how it needs to with no room for error. Seems almost perfect, on the other hand we have the Rockets, my AAA hockey team the summer before sixth grade. It was made up of players from the La Crosse area who played and practiced together every summer for the last few years. We weren’t exactly the most organized team in the sense of having professional attitudes. The ceiling at our practice arena had leaks…

Glaciers are defined as a persistent body of extremely dense ice that forms over millions of years in result of very cold temperatures that occurred on Earth during the Ice Age.

she excitedly pulls us out of bed. This is her day. It belongs to no one else, her first solo ice skating competition. Preparing for this all important day has taken a great deal of work. Able to walk a balance beam at two, Christy takes to ice skating as quickly as she walks a balance beam. Before long we are involved in a world of group lessons, private lessons, ice pros, costumes, and ice shows. Thank goodness for the Zion Park District, five minutes away, and how lucky we are to…

Snowboarding, skiing, hockey, and ice skating are all pretty common here in Idaho. Although I haven’t gone snowboarding or skiing, I have heard from almost everybody that a trip to do either would not be a waste of time. I can imagine what it would be like and I can’t wait for the day when…
