WILD ANIMALS

 

Bill, being as blind as a bat, bounced by the buffalos

Huge hamsters hop through hills of hyper hippos

The alligators sit,

baking in the sun like a loaf of bread

Lions are the king of the jungle

They control the earth

The outdoors is my life. In my free time I either go hunting or fishing. I love to go camping as well. Over the summer I had the privilege of going to the Boundary Waters. We camped, canoed, fished, and had a wonderful time. Every weekend over the summer I would go fishing and usually came home with a few fish.
