In it there was only half empty lukewarm bottles of water, granola bar wrappers, and the remnants of what was a healthy surplus of beef jerky. As empty as our snack bag was, our hearts were filled with determination. Our task became more urgent - we must find a Subway. Only a Subway would do. Unfortunately,…

Camping In this paper I will talk about one significant point in my life. It may not seem like much to most people but it means a lot to me. I went camping with my dad a few years ago.
