John Day

December 27,2015

I am heading to John Day, Oregon to our cabin to go sledding. On the way there I see the devestation of a fire from this summer. There is no green, only white snow and burnt black trees. Every now and then I see houses, or what's left of them. There are stumps everywhere.

    When we finally get near where we are going we can't get past the first gate.  Our four wheeler can't get past a tree, so we start hiking.  We don't even make it half way to the second gate when we head back. The snow went up to my butt and hurt our legs lifting our them so high. When we get back we strip from our snow clothes and go back to John Day to retrieve presents from our grandparents.
