The Snow Queen

I walked through blurring snow and glistening flakes that were swirling around me up the hill to the old barn door in order to find shelter in the blizzard. I pushed open the door just enough to get through and entered the barn. There were fresh hay bales all over and I sat down on one and looked around examining my surroundings. I did a quick scan and nothing caught my attention at first, however, I scanned again and I saw what appeared to be an old antique chest in the far left corner of the…

Paragraph 1-Song-Let it Snow The reason I picked this song is pretty self explanatory. I picked this song because in the beginning of the book when Percy’s Mom is driving them it is snowing. The snow and sleet “Pounds down on the road”. This song let it snow fits perfectly for the scene when it is snowing. The reason is in the song it says, “Let it snow” and while they are in the car they want it to keep snowing because they like snow. This is the reason for this song. Paragraph 2-Song-I…

totally impassable without snowshoes. Weighing in my predicament I knew this could totally end our chances of having banana bread tonight. Then I got an idea I could just duck tape my avalanche shovel to my boot and it would help me stay afloat in the snow. With my modified snowshoe rigged up we started out with nothing but banana bread on our minds. Hours later we neared the trail head seeing this I began to run towards the car my modified snowshoe was barely intact but I didn’t care. We let…

Ski patrols work in some of the most dangerous conditions faced by first responders. Not only do they face precarious snow conditions en route to emergencies; but they also must carry all their equipment on their backs and perform rescues in below freezing temperatures. Some patrollers are also trained to rescue individual’s off chairlifts if necessary. On top of the already difficult job of rescuing injured skiers, patrollers also monitor trail conditions, and provide skiers with opportunities…

The Great Snowboarder So one day a boy named Evan 16 yrs was hanging out outside with his friend Nathan 16 yrs. All of a sudden they hear a big noise. BANG ! “What was that?” Nathan said. “i don't know,” said Evan. They both went to the highway where the noise came from and they saw two cars severely damaged, so they tried to see if the people were ok. They weren't ok and they were very hurt.

Big Bird Imagine being a fledgling, soaring through the sky, the wind fluttering through your feathers. Complete freedom. Then suddenly, the cool autumn breeze turns into a slicing gust of winter air. You become sick and cold. You realize you are alone in the world and have nowhere to go. This is how I found my soon to be budgie. It was the beginning of winter, just before a harsh cold front hit, when I found and rescued a sickly budgie from the forces of Mother Nature, just a year ago.…

Snowfall) Although it had been four years, but my skills were still very nimble! I quickly stepped one foot on the small tree, and with the help of the tree, I bounced onto the top of the wall, positioning myself mounting the wall that was covered with snow. I looked inside the campus. Not a single person was in sight. The students and teachers should be still having a nice dream. There was only me, this hard working person who had been woken up by the restless Murong Shan Shan. A phone call…

“Fall down seven times, get up eight.” I know that sounds easy, right? Well, it is not so easy when you are held down by the biggest burden of all. It was a perfect day to go sledding the winter of 2014. I went along with my neighbors McKenzie, Noah and Hunter. My siblings Averil, Elias and Xavia also came along. We were sledding on the small hill by the District Service Center. We always wanted to see who made it further down the hill. After a while my brother found a jump a little ways down…

Spending the night was always something common for me to do at my grandparents’ house. On this particular morning it was extremely cold outside. Not the type of cold where you just might want to put on two big jackets. It was the type of cold that made you want to cringe; even the whistle of the wind was harsh to your eardrums. The type of cold that the ligaments of your fingers ached from the chills attacking at them, even they were simultaneously begging you to get them to warmth. Now I was in…
