“The Dells are part of the Driftless Area, meaning it was untouched by glacial ice. However, glaciers in other parts of the state melted, forming Glacial Lake Wisconsin; which was about 150 feet deep and the size of Utah’s Great Salt Lake. 14,000 years ago, the last ice dam holding back this large lake gave way, causing a great flood. The floodwaters poured through the area cutting out gorges, likely within days or weeks, and leaving behind the towering sandstone Dells as we see them today. The

WISCONSIN, THE BADGER STATE The soothing breeze blows gently through the trees and down low to the branches, going under and over the tall mountains and green, grassy valleys. Cows in black and white graze on the olive colored field of grass, waiting steadily amidst the sights of this beautiful state.

I felt guilty for working on my project instead of spending time with my family. My grandpa had even said to me, “Next year you better not bring any homework; you are supposed to be having fun.” At 3:00, on Sunday afternoon, I got home from Wisconsin Dells and I still had to add color to my whole map and add a few more mountain ranges.     Finally, I finished my world map and all of my stress was gone, being replaced with relief.

Today, the U.S. is still struggling with the loss of nature. Tourist

and I were in Wisconsin Dells for about a week. It had been a lot of fun so far, and it had to be timed perfectly since my whole family was there.That is hard to do because my sister is in college and she is in Cedar Falls, but it all worked out fine and we all had a blast over the week - we went to a place where we pretended to be wizards, we went to Noah’s Ark water park, we went to Mount Olympus theme park, and we rode on duck boats.
