Cutting through 1,450 miles of mountains and deserts, the Colorado River supplies water to over 25 million people and helps to irrigate 3.5 million acres of farmland.

More water is exported from the Colorado River’s 250,000 square-mile basin than from any other river basin in the world.

The river’s waters are diverted to supply numerous regions including the Salt Lake Valley in Utah; the Rio Grande Basin in New Mexico; Cheyenne, Wyoming; the southern coastal plain and irrigation districts in California; and over the Continental Divide to the city of Denver. 

Waters of the Colorado River were first developed by the Anasazi Indians in northwestern New Mexico as early as 600 A.D. followed by Spanish missionaries in the mid-16th century.

By the mid-1800s, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (Mormons) settled in Utah and began developing the Green and Virgin rivers – major tributaries to the Colorado River.

In 1869, geologist John Wesley Powell led a party that became the first to successfully explore and map the Green and Colorado rivers.

A one-armed Civil War major, Powell led three boats down the Colorado through the Grand Canyon on two expeditions, proving the trip could be accomplished. His explorations helped open the gateway to the West – and development of the Colorado River

I ate pork,

& became a dork.

I made a pie,

& caught a fly.

I bought a cake,

it ate my stake.

I ate a apple,

it turned in to a Snapple.

I caught a pice of sun,

in a bag of fun.

It turned in to a cat,

that found a hat & caught a bat.

Who flew away & found hay,

when the cat was at the bay.

the bat flew up,

The cat dug down.

 

I am going to write about two crazy stories I read. I will compare & contrast , “Vordak the Incomprehensible” by Scott Seegert  and “Bad Kitty” by Nick Bruel.

There are some similarities in these two crazy stories. First of all both stories have crazy main characters.  Both stories have animals.  Both of the main characters take naps.

Although both stories have a lot of similarities, there are specific differences. In”Bad Kitty,” the main character is a cat. In “Vordak the Incomprehensible,” the main character is a super-villain  In “Vordak the Incomprehensible” Vordak’s house was eliminated. In “Bad Kitty,” kitty destroys the inside of her house.

In conclusion, both stories were very exiting to read. I enjoyed reading “Vordak the Incomprehensible” & “Bad Kitty” because they were Hilarious!. I liked “Vordak the Incomprehensible,” because he fails a hundred times to rule the world & each time he fails it just gets more fun.

The epic Ring tale lemur will blow your mind. Ring tale lemurs have black & white striped tales which gives them their name. Ring tale lemurs have orange eyes. Ring tale lemurs have long, wet, black noses. Ring tale lemurs have gray & brown fur on their sides and back, and white fur on their belly.

The Ring tale lemur habitat is the most beautiful place. Ring tale lemurs live in the forest of Madagascar. They also live in subalpin areas. Ring tale lemur can also be found in spiny bush forests. Ring tale lemurs also live in deciduous forests.

Ring tale lemur babies are adorable. The infants have a birth weight of 70g. The young Ring tale lemurs begin to eat solid food after two months. Ring tale lemur infants are carried on their mothers for the first two weeks. the breeding season runs from mid-April to mid-May.

Ring tale lemurs have incredible adaptations. Most of their life they’er on the ground. Ring tale lemurs make howling noises to scare other animals out of their territory. Ring tale lemurs use scent to communicate. On winter afternoons they form snooze huddles: a big ball of snuggling lemurs. Ring tale lemurs can breath and swallow at the same time.
Ring tale lemurs have a great appetite. Ring tale lemurs are fruit lovers. They eat kily & banana. They also eat mango, strawberries, and pears.

It is important to keep Ring tale lemurs safe. Ring tale lemurs are endangered. The forests of Madagascar are disappearing. When the forests disappear so will the Ring tale lemurs. Ring tale lemurs are not safe. Ring tale lemurs are not protected by the law.

Big Sur is by far the most magnificent, majestic, and beautiful place I have ever seen! Squirrels and raccoons  play in the beautiful pine tree’s. All the beautiful songs the bird’s sing touched my ears. The gray fog covers the magnificent mountains. there are seagulls flying over the ocean looking for fish.          Ocean waves crash upon big rocks. All the water I could see was crystal clear.                                                                                                                              THE END Or Is It. Every where I go I see people hiking up the mountains. I hope to see magnificent Big Sur again.

A very special time in my life was my 8 year old summer camping tripe to Big Sur which is     a big grassy camping ground. We went hiking 4 times total. We went hiking 2 times to a waterfall. One time we went hiking to the ocean.there was poison  oak every were. My dad read a book every night we were there. We cooked hot dogs  then roasted marshmallows we staid a few days and then came home…
