Greenway Park, the strange lake

Greenway Park, the
strange lake

It was a magnificent day to go throw my line out at
the lake by Greenway Park. Greenway Park is so
big. It's like running to both ends of a football field. It's
really green , too. Greener than green eggs and
ham. Well, not really, but it's time to stroll to the lake. I
didn’t need that much stuff except the PB&J sandwich
my mom threw together for me.
I was walking on the path and people were looking at
me like I was insane, I had a backpack with a fishing
pole, a tackle box and a sleeping bag in it. I held up a
canoe over my head, and it felt like I was lifting up a
lion. That's all, but I still walked.

When I got to the lake, I threw my canoe on the water
and layed down on my sleeping bag. It was so quiet. It
was like I was in a library but not with books and
people. I was about to fall asleep, but something
startled me. The bush made a noise. I didn't know
what to do, was the turkey coming back for revenge?
No it can't be. Ohno Ahh I yelled! oh! It was just a
skunk. What a skunk! I was outta there like a cat
digging up a hornet nest.
About three minutes past he disappeared, I wondered
where he went. I heard that skunks can swim, but I
didn't care.

Who’s
that
animal

I’m out on the water. The water was so clear, it was
like glass. I can see my bobber out in the middle of the
lake, and I have to wait until I have a big one. I saw
the skunk again but all the way on the other side of the
lake on land. I blinked once, and he's alright behind
me. I wonder why he's circling around the lake bets
me? The skunk would not stop going round and round.
It was like he was trying to catch something. He dolvin
with his paws out, like a bear catching a fish, he had a
crab. The skunk sqwild like a little pig the crab had him
by the nose, the skunk was rolling mady even crying
that nose looked like a chery. I think the fight is over.

I started to see my line jump like a big old frog. I
grabbed my rod and almost pulled me in. It's like me
trying to rangle myself a gator. It might have been an
alligator because of how tough it was to reel in. I
thought this was going to be a breeze in a Park
literally. I had a whale on my line. I just lassoed a bull.
I tried to tire him out but it just didn't work. It's like he
just drank five letters of coffee. By the time I tired him
out he got back to it. I know he was mad so he started
to hit the sides of my canoe. He jumped right into my
canoe. I thought I caught him.

he was just sinking my canoe. now i was mad so I
hit him right up on the side of his head. I knew this was
enough time to dring him to shour. I started to pull the
canoe to land and tip the canoe on the sand. I caught
him! I wanted to tack a photo of him but it must have
fallen in the water. He gained back conchensnis and
flopped back in the water. There was a puddle below
me I was so sad i started to walk back up the path
entail that skunk started to chase me all the way
home.
