Personal Narrative Essay: Peaceful Valley Lake
It was a chilly fall morning, and I couldn’t sleep. I threw on some shorts, a jacket, and my tennis shoes to go for a walk. Of course my energetic dog, Buster and my princess dog, Darla wanted to go with me. I got Buster’s leash and we took off through the subdivision. He was a fat dog that somehow pretty much drug me as I carried Darla because she doesn’t walk that much. Our subdivision at Peaceful Valley Lake has a lot of houses there, but it was early enough that only a few people were out driving. I wanted to walk Buster down to the dam to get a drink. This is about a mile away from my house. Although he wasn’t too tired yet, we headed back towards home. By the time we got halfway back Buster was tired and panting. Plus I was getting tired

    Nestled within western Hennepin County and Carver County, Minnesota, Lake Minnetonka holds unique meaning for different people. The retreating Wisconsin Glacier of the last Ice Age that produced melted blocks of ice, gave life and form to this island lake. It was Alexander Ramsey, Minnesota’s territorial governor in 1852, who gave Lake Minnetonka its name. The lake is also commonly known as the Big Waters, deriving that nickname from the Sioux language in which “Minne” means water and “Tonka” means big or great. As the ninth largest lake in Minnesota, Lake Minnetonka features several islands, a series of interconnecting bays including Haltsed Bay and Grays Bay, and it covers 22.2 square miles of water, boasting roughly 110 miles of beautiful…

    I remember when I was young and I had to decide what color of popsicle I wanted and it seemed like it would be the hardest decision I’d have to make. These type of decisions get easier as I became older, but I remember when I was young and had to make a pretty fast and life saving decision. My childhood best friend Ethan and I thought it was the perfect day to go out for a cooling dip at Lookout Lake. We got on our Bermuda trunks and raced out of my beat down, old, white ranch house, all the way across our small town to the docks. The best place to hang out was at our hometown lake; the cooling freshness of the water and how the trees slightly glossed over us as we swam kept us from the blazing sun. The beautiful oranges and blues of the…

    Even though I wasn't looking forward to my day I found the strength to roll out of bed. Especially because I was worried my dog Daisy was causing trouble. Sure enough I had found her whimpering in the corner because she couldn't get a bag of crumbled Doritos open. She had already demolished a half eaten roast beef sandwich from Arby's, and what I believed to be the remains of a rotten banana peel. I cleaned up her mess and quickly grabbed her leash to see if I could exhaust her on a walk. After a half hour spent in the rain I realized I forgot my keys and didn't have my cell phone. At the time I was living on the third floor, and the only window that I could access was up an old rusted fire escape. Thankfully, my window was unlocked and easily opened.…

    An Unusual Pet

    AN UNUSUAL PET Guinness was probably the most gorgeous pup you had ever seen. When he first came to stay with Kathy and James he was only six weeks old and they had chosen him specially from a litter of pups in a nearby pet shop. They brought Guinness home in a little basket and placed him in his new room which had been carefully prepared for the pup. He had toys, a soft cuddly bed and a litter tray. He had fun running around in the large room with the new vinyl floor and no furniture to get in his way. Plenty of space to grow up in ..... or so his new owners thought! The first few weeks were such fun, both for Kathy and James and the little pup. His coat was like silver velvet and his eyes gradually turned from bright blue to a delicious mauve colour. He not only looked gorgeous, but he felt so smooth and silky to touch. He squealed with delight and rolled over onto his tummy whenever Kathy made to stroke him When they eventually took him out for walks, people they didn't know would come over to speak, but if truth be told, they couldn't resist stroking Guinness and they wanted to know all about him. He was a very unusual breed, a Weirmerand, and most people had never seen a dog quite like him before.…
