    the CBD to logically explain why the imperial sand dunes outside of Yuma need to be closed to off road use.

    journey I have only ventured on once a long, long time ago. All I remember was it being very far and getting a piggyback ride for most of it. Now this year as yet another dune day was coming to a close, it was like 7 or 8 o’clock at night, we let Ella off her leash and followed her as she headed toward Sugarloaf, the biggest dune. As she start to climb my dad joined her because she obviously can’t go alone. They both stopped many time struggling up the big mountain but after quite a bit of time they

    We walk down old, crumbling stairs to see a white sand beach and blue, sinuous waters ahead. Every step down we take, the distinct smell of the water enters our noses and exits clean and untouched as we inhale out. On the beach, families are sitting on their blankets and folding chairs, with their umbrellas open to hide them from the harmful rays of the sun. Kids run around and splash each other in the cold waters of Lake Michigan. We find a nice spot on the beach, lay down our towels, and sit down

    Every morning, I would wake up and look out of my window. I would admire the vast expanse of shimmering ocean that stretched beyond the horizon. My bedroom window in the back of the house looked over the enclosed porch, over the sea wall, and onto the beach. Entranced by the lull of crashing waves, I would become memorized at the immensity of it all. I was never afraid of the ocean. As a child, my sister and I would long spend hours out on the beach in front of our house. We would build gigantic

    Some of my fondest childhood memories are of camping trips my parents would take me on starting at a very young age. These memories consist of walking a dark forest trail in the middle of the night, black bags hanging from the hands of all the young children with hopes of catching the mysterious snipe that had been roaming the woods, gathering around warm fires on cool nights with people you barely know and hearing out their past adventures, hoping to one day to take their place with adventurous

    dog. All I remember now is going to my special place all the time when I was little and it had a rope swing inside and I use too sit on it and swing back and forth. I haven’t been there for ages, but it hasn’t changed much, still the same old sand dunes near the beach with big trees and bushes that have grown a little. But other than that, it’s still my favourite beach I remember and have grown up with for the past 17 years. I made an adventure out of my special place as I was the only one that
