Final day!
We woke up and checked our traps once again. Only two groups
had caught something. And ours was one of them. We caught one little female
mouse. It was cool to see just how smart animals are because we had put a lot
of peanut butter in our trap and all of it was gone but only one mouse was
caught.
This adventure has now come to an end. It was such an
amazing experience to learn about Native culture but also see just how much
they are trying to care for the environment. And getting to see all these beautiful
places that I had never seen. This trip has definitely opened up my mind and
made me realize just how many jobs there actually is in environmental science.
But for now it is time to get back home to my kiddos. My son called me and said
he had already forgotten what I look like.
Thank you to all the teachers for your hard work. For putting
this amazing trip together. For putting up with some of us when we took too long
to get in the car, Mike. When they locked the keys I the car, Taylor. Or for
having to carry a little extra weight in your bag, Pedro. We all really thank
you because if it wasn’t for all of you we would not have had the opportunity to
experience such an amazing trip.
Thank you to all the White Swan high schoolers. For making
this trip really enjoyable. It was great getting to know all of you and seeing
how interested you guys were in helping the environment. I’m pretty sure you
will all go a long way.
Thank you to all the Heritage students. It was great knowing
all of you. Hope to continue seeing you guys on campus. And can’t wait to see
the change each and everyone of you will have on our community.
