A
Crazy Camping Trip
A
week after the ice moved, four other people and I went on a camping
trip. At first, my brother asked me if I wanted to go to St. Mary's,
and of course I said, "Yeah why not?" So he told me to bring extra
clothes, a stereo, good music, and a sleeping bag. I replied," Okay,
but why do I need all these for?" But I did as they said, and brought
all kinds of stuff.
Later
on, I brought my big bag and stereo down to the boat. Anthony and
Unga brought a grub box to the boat and there was a tent, a canoe, a
tote with a net inside of it, and about a million bags!
It was
like we
were moving some where, and I was confused I asked Anthony, " Why do
we need all these things just to go down to St. Mary's?" He said, "
Because we might break down some where in the middle of nowhere!" (
Then he laughed ) I replied, " I don't think that we'll break down
with a new 90 horsepower engine!"
Anthony
and I waited impatiently in the boat for my brother and the other
guys. Finally after 45 minutes, they finally came down and we took
off. When we took off, I was relaxing in the sun, with my sunglasses
on. After about an hour we slowed down and I noticed we were inside
of a slough. I asked if we were almost to St. Mary's. Unga said, "
We're in Unkatagvik; we're going camping!" Then I shouted, " I
thought that we were going to St. Mary's!" They all laughed. then
I said, " No
wonder you guys brought some tissue!" ( Hee, hee, hee.) But after a
while, I thought that it would be just fine if we went
camping.
After we finally got to the camping area and
the guys pitched the tent, I started my famous fire. (Hee,
hee, hee.) After that Anthony, Unga, and I went on a little walk
while the others put the net into the slough. We walked along a
portage trail, which led to a long marsh and a big giant
lake.
When
we got back and finally settled in, Unga shouted, " Look
at that bear across the slough!" It was in the clearing, and he was
so BIG, I totally freaked out! I couldn't believe they left alone,
and it actually walked back into the woods after it took a
leak.
Since it was so hot out and the sun was
shining, and there was not a single breeze of wind outside, I washed
my face and hair. But while I was washing my face, my bar of soap
slipped out of my hand and fell into the clear water, and when Unga
tried to reach for it, he fell in. Since I was sitting on the side of
boat he pulled me in too. The water was so cold and it was also very
deep. And when he tried to get out of the water, he used me as a step
and almost drowned me.
That
night the five of us stayed up all night talking and just having a "major hang time fun". (Ha ha ha) When my older brother fell asleep,
the three "guyz" tried to go canoeing and almost floated down the
slough with one oar. When they came back, Unga took off his socks and
put them so close to the bonfire that they caught on fire and burned.
They reminded me of marshmallows, they were so black. That was real
funny. Then those guys were scaring each other about the" Boogie
man in the trees." And they were freaking me out about the little men
and that "Harry man dude."
Only once did my older brother get mad at us
because he said that we scared away all the animals. I guess we were
too loud!
That was a very fun camping trip!!
