I continued to cast at the bank making long cast for a deeper run of the crank bait. “Get the net” as I set the hook on a nice fish that seemed was going to be a problem since this was my first time actually catching a fish out of a boat. As the fish jumped a couple times out of the water trying to throw the crank bait my partner says “Nice fish” as he nets the fish and lets me know it is about the same size he caught. I was so excited I couldn`t wait to catch another
Everyone picked up their calls, hoping to bring them in. They finally committed and I was ready, now more than ever. Drew made the call and yelled, “Cut em’!” Every gun fired and every duck hit the water. The perfect beginning to what seemed to be the perfect hunt. When I think of a place that relaxes me and brings me great joy, the duck blind always comes to mind.
When they get home they take the beads out the bags and keep the ones they like and throw the rest in the bag, and the little kids look through the bags to find toys that they can play with. The rest of the bead that the people don’t want they can give them to friends that ride on floats so they can throw them next year. That is why Mardi Gras is a tradition to have in Louisiana. The floats are amazing to look at. It’s fun to yell real loud and not get in trouble for it.
Once the boy asked for guidance to feel around for his last shrimp he lost on the ground he assures McDonald that he will catch a Tarpon. McDonald determined to get back on track, starts back jogging as the young boy shouts at him again as a tarpon torpedoed six feet out the water. After all the struggle the boys line suddenly went limp and all determination was lost as the boy didn’t realize that the fish was not unhooked but scurrying back up stream heading towards the pilings. Once the boy landed the fish McDonald helped land the fish as the young boy asked him what it looked like as McDonald responded “Look down here and check him out.” (126) This was the defying moment of the story as McDonald then realizes as he second looks the boy and his 50’s glasses that he realizes he was blind. McDonald then goes in depth to explain how beautiful the fish was and releases the
We would play a game where we dragged two tubes behind the boat and we would try to see how many times we could successfully transfer from one to another. Unfortunately, I was not the winner of this game. Many of the time the passing water would catch me and drag my body off of the tubes. We left the lake a little sun burnt and sore but still had a great time. June 09, 2012 Today at work was
(Brimblecombe 1) The river was contaminated and no one did anything to fix it. It was unhealthy for the people to drink but they had no choice because there was no other water for them to drink. The river that they got their water from was polluted and they risked their life every time they drank from it. Pollution that was occurring in the Victorian Era is still in existence
He would go out in the rain with his father to gather as many crops as they could to keep their family from going hungry. Jody's sense of responsibility helped him to deal with the fawn's interference with his family's survival. When the fawn started nibbling on the sweet potato vines, Jody worked twice as hard and fast to make up for the loss. Jody would gather extra crops so there would be enough food for his whole family, including Flag. Jody also built a pen for Flag to keep him from ruining the crops.
We went up to the lake because everyone went there, because we wanted to snuff the rich scent of possibility on the breeze, watch a girl take off her clothes and plunge into the festering murk, drink beer, smoke pot, howl at the stars, savor the incongruous full-throated roar of rock and roll against the primeval susurrus of frogs and crickets. This was nature.” (647) In the protagonist’s attempt to rebel and be bad, he has no respect for “nature”. After years of desecration, the lake is called “Greasy” and the narrator takes pride in its transformation, calling it “nature”, and carrying out the tradition of being “bad” against
The change in climate and adverse weather conditions led to less agricultural productivity. The malnutrition led to the lack of antibodies people had in their immune system, therefore may have caused the Europeans to die more quickly. Poor sanitation was a major factor in the cities that led up to the contagious symptoms of the plague. The towns had no running water. Without running water, people didn’t bathe or wash their clothes.
In a way it was like the Holocaust, only not as cruel. The trains would travel at night so that when they went by the few pockets of civilization, no one would see the prisoners. Eventually the railroad ended, and prisoners were chained together a forced to march hundreds of miles to their destinations. This fate was not shared by all though, only the most remote (and therefore deadliest) camps required this forced march. Many perished before they even found out where they were going
