This is a pond that is near our home. It is by a mountain. Those sticks are a beaver dam.



I find that beavers are very interesting. We read a book about a beaver once. It was called The Adventures of Jerry Muskrat and the beaver in it was called cousin Paddy Beaver.

But I have my own story to tell...

Once upon a time there was a beaver called cousin Paddy Beaver. The beaver's cousin was Jerry Muskrat. The beaver was making a dam when his cousin came along to help. The beaver built the dam about 10 feet high, which was touching the top of a bridge. The beaver dam was being built under a bridge. While they were making the dam, somebody was having a picnic at a beach at a river. The river floated into the creek that the dam was on.

The beaver and the muskrat were very tired. They went to bed.

Now it's morning. The muskrat and the beaver went down to the dam and ate sandwiches for breakfast. The sandwiches from the picnic had fallen into the water. The sandwiches had gotten stuck in the dam. The beaver pulled the sandwiches out for breakfast.

The people from the picnic came to look for the sandwiches and they were all eaten up.

The end.

The same day we saw the dam, we had brought a quad in the back of our truck. We unloaded it out of our truck and drove it through this river that I'm throwing a rock into. Up the river there was a corner and that's where we crossed with the quad. It was very fun. I liked it.
