     The air smelled like piñon trees. We had to drive all the way there. It took more than one hour!    


    “Phew!” I said. When we got there, we started to set up camp. 


    My dad said, “Come and help boys!” So I went to help him lower the legs on the camper.     

    Chapter 2 Fishing 

    We walked through the woods to get to the lake. In the woods It felt very warm. 


     “Are we there yet?” I asked. “Almost,” said my dad. “Okay,” I replied. When we got there we did not catch anything! But we did here some amazing things

    Chapter 3 My Catch 

    The next day we went fishing. At first it was not fun, but right when I started to give up I felt something tug on my line. It was really hard to reel in. Once I brought it in it reeked like algae.
    “My fish looks very shiny”. Once we got it back we cooked it. It was delicious. 

    “Mm,” I said.  It really was the best camping trip ever .
