English Snow Winter is my favorite time of the year. The snow is my favorite thing about winter. Snow is precipitation in the form of ice.

My canoe started rocking harder and harder from side to side allowing the big waves to come into my canoe. Three canoes was already ahead of us and another just went past

Something any soccer player wants most than anything in the world‚ a President’s Cup championship. Practice is the reason for these types of tournaments. All the practice and extra work I put in payed off. I put in so much hard word and dedication‚ you wouldn’t believe. We had to do a lot of conditioning and drills to get to this point. My team and I worked ourselves to the point of breakage. We worked all summer for this moment. We played against higher level teams to make us better‚ and that was
