Flying boat

Abigail is writing to John Adams on July 16, 1775 and telling him about how scarce everything is and about the war ships in the harbor firing upon the soldiers. “They came of with a hot and continued to fire upon them, the bullets flying in every direction and the Men of War boats plying them with small arms” (founders). You can hear the fear in her tone as she remains in the house with their young children while he is away with other members of the Continental Congress trying to reach an…

with many lines and obvious attention to detail. It depicts two flocks of birds flying past or through each other above a nearly symmetrical landscape. The flock flying to the left is black, above a mostly white town, and the flock flying to the right is white, above a mostly black town. The towns are nearly identical in structure, with a windmill, a church, a winding river, a concentration of buildings, trees, and a boat on the river. There is no harsh line between the two towns, but rather…

misfortune rather than luck. Legends proclaim the creature signifies death and doom in the near future. After the Mariner kills the albatross, the men believe it to be a beneficial omen. However after the fog clears, the water becomes eerily still and the boat “as idle as a painted ship/ Upon a painted ocean” (117-118). The wind dies and the ship becomes motionless causing the crew to reevaluate their acceptance of the pointless murder. The bird aids the ship’s journey; however, the Mariner…

While Santiago is at sea, he tends to observe all of the creatures like the flying fish, birds, dolphins, Portuguese man-of-war, Sargasso weed, and everything else around him. “A man is never lost at sea…”(89). When Santiago says this, he is saying although he may feel isolated and alone, he never really is because life is all around…

was bright beautiful clear day. The sky was so clear that you could see all the Hot air balloons in the sky. We began our trip to Oakland where on our way there I witness people getting ready to go down the beach, by loading there jet ski or power boats. The long drive through Sonoma County was amazing looking at all the acres of the beautiful wine country. Before arriving to the Oakland Bridge we pasted through a tunnel where it turns dark with a mild light,…

invaded and occupied by Japanese forces, hoping to divert American forces from the Midway Atoll. The P-38s stationed there, although limited in number, proved their worth by flying extremely long range patrols across the island chain. On 9 August 1942, a P-38 patrol of the 343rd Fighter Group happened upon a pair of Japanese flying boats, and destroyed them with no damage in return. This marked the first kills of the P-38 in any…

bad hang gliding accident that landed me here. I was hang gliding side by side with my friend for her birthday. We rented hang gliders and brought them to the park by the beach. We had successfully got up in the air and were having an awesome time, flying with the birds in the air . The plan was to fly in the morning for about an hour, while the winds were strong, then we would play at the park and go in the water. We checked the weather on our designated day, and everything was going just as…
