Today everyone woke up early, well most of us because we are getting better at it and faster. We were all ready before 7:15 am. Because I was ready I had breakfast …. I usually don’t eat in the morning but I felt good today -  but I’m not a morning person. So that’s why I was happy we went to a marsh with Trent and Tom, fish biologists. We pulled the invasive weeds out of the marsh. Maria and Jenedi fell into the water while they were trying to pull the weeds and some of them got stuck in the mud. We pulled the weeds so we can help the other plants grow. I like it because it was fun to do and because I have not done it before.
In the afternoon, we met with Pete powers who is a forest manger and we went to the forest and cut trees for 3 hours. We cut trees because we needed to aspen to grow. We cut pine trees and white fir.
 Then we went to safeway for some stuff like food and whatever else we needed, and then we drove back to camp.

7/9/19 Yesterday after we got back from Potato Hill and we got done with our flower pressings we went back to camp and got our clothes ready for the showers. The showers were very cold but I need to be all clean because I didn’t feel like being all dirty for like 2 or 3 days. But I got use to it of course and I felt so good. After that then we had dinner, but before dinner me and my cousin went into the tent and laid down and went to sleep for a bit. Then we were laughing because we was playing games on our phones and we kept dying and I got first place but not for killing people. That is the only thing that sucked about the game. We had circle and we was talking about the huckleberries how they are not growing and why they are gone before we pick unless people are over picking. When we went up to Potato Hill the berries were already growing but they are still green. I’m hoping when we go up there with the school on the second day that there will be berries, if not then I’m not g

YAKAMA DAY 2

7/7/19 We woke up at 6:30am then got ready for breakfast. We have chores and we rotate every breakfast and dinner.   My first chore started the night before, I had to help cook dinner, which was spaghetti.   I then rotated my chore this morning to dishwasher.   After breakfast and everyone is finished with their chores, we got into three separate groups and got everything ready for the trail cams.   My group was called Jere Bears and we had to decide where we should put our trail cams to see what animals we can get.   Then we will collect the trail cams on Tuesday before we leave.   From two to five we helped the Camp Chaparral people clean up pine needles and move classroom supplies from storage. We ended up doing “Peach and Pit”, this is where we share good/bad thing from our day.   I didn’t feel like doing it because all of us mostly did the same things and everyone was saying the same thing for the good and bad. I’m glad that we got to go to sleep at 9:16pm instead of 10 or

July 17 2019 Today we woke up around 7 am and got ready to go with Alex Gonyaw to different places. The first place was the Klamath Tribe’s research station. We got to see the lost river sucker and short nose sucker also long nose sucker and why we were learning about them was because they are endangered species. Why is because their water has algae blooms. We did a walk on a trail to a dam that they are trying to get rid of. There are four dams they are going to remove. Tonight is our last night here in Klamath which I am sad about. I felt good about listening to Jeff Mitchell from the Klamath Tribe. He is an elder.
