Snow Golf Descriptive Writing
I rush downstairs as fast as a five year old with snow pants a pink puffy jacket could. I put on my warmest socks that I packed and sit down on the couch so my mom can put on my snow boots. It’s 2007 and my parents decide to take us to our grandparents house in Vermont for our school vacation. We’re getting ready to go sledding on the Mount Snow golf course. After we all have our winter clothes on, we head outside. We all gather up the best sleds and start our journey to the hill. Me, being the smallest and youngest in the pack, I fall behind and get stuck in the deep, heavy snow. I glance ahead amongst the snow covered trees and see the rest of my family, almost through the woods and onto the hill. My mother yells to make sure I am still …show more content…
My eyes look up and see my three siblings attempting to make it up. We discover that there is a layer of ice on top of the snow which makes it nearly impossible for a five year old to climb. I watch as my brother Alex digs and makes a path for me to get up. As soon as I am up on the top of the sledding hill, I see Maddy and Lindsay without their sleds, on their stomachs sliding down the mountain. We are penguins, gliding as if we are on an iceberg. In this moment we are fearless, carefree, courageous. We go on for hours, entertaining ourselves. I feel an indescribable togetherness. The first time I experience what being apart of a family feels like. Soon enough, our toes feel frozen and we decide to head back to the house. Mom and Dad make hot chocolate and we all settle in on the couch and watch movies.
Later, we make and decorate sugar cookies and spend the rest of the day together with my grandparents. The next day, we get up early and pack up to return home. I had such enjoyable time and always make a million memories when we go to Vermont. This particular trip showed me what family is. I have such an inexplicable love for my family, and I wouldn’t trade them for the

    First, Joe got the keys to his dad’s F-150 , which was loaded with snow tires and a snow plow. Joe conglomerated the snow into one massive, 20 foot pile, far bigger than ever before. The in-run was as big as a two story house. Looking up to the in-run, the top of the pile glistened with the orange rays from the sun creeping under the mass of snow. After the in-run was finished, we took out the shovels and built another snow pile, which was a few inches taller than my five foot stature. The four of us spent nearly an hour sculpting the jump and grooming the in-run to perfection. Lastly, we built the landing by piling another mass of snow nearly 10 feet away from the jump. Before heading in for hot chocolate and dinner, we froze the jump so that it would harden overnight. We finished at 9 o’clock, so it was pitch black; I had no idea what the jump looked…

    As I crossed the road with my dog Henry, I could feel the frigid winter breeze on my face. Then I felt a snowflake land on my nose like a plane landing after a long flight. I didn’t like this cold weather at all but I had heard many children around me cheering and laughing. I heard things like “woohoo it is snowing” and things like “oww don't throw snowballs at my face”. That last one made me chuckle a little bit when I had heard it. Then I heard someone yell my name, which is Brian by the way. So I turned around and felt a big snowball hit my back.…

    About 2,500 miles east lies the cold and rainy city of Canton, Ohio. The majority of my childhood was spent inside the house as Ohio was not ideal for outdoor adventure. Although, after turning 6, I was introduced to snow skiing . It became an enjoyable hobby of mine for years. Skiing opened my eyes to the beauty of nature and the serenity it provided. I loved the smell of fresh air and the exhilarating feeling of gliding down the mountain. It is a very peaceful sport and provides a silence away from everyday life. Coincidentally, I learned of ski club in middle school where I could ski with several other students that enjoyed this exercise as well. I joined the club and looked forward to the weekly Sunday trips. It showed the importance…

    Looking back at my encounter with the ”Shovel Man”, also known as counselors pranking the campers. More than anything, it reveals how a scary event in your life can turn out to be completely different than it seemed at the time. For me, my imagination ran wild and I believed I was in a “near death” experience, when in reality it was just a harmless prank. It is important to keep things in perspective when you are in a frightening situation and not act in the heat of the…

    Some people say you go to heaven and some people say you go to he(double hockey stick). One morning I woke up extra early then usual for no reason. I when to check out the window as usual and I saw something that I thought was unreal. It looked as if it was white and fluffy. The thing i’m talking about is snow. This made it seem as if the earth was covered with a white smooth blanket. I ran too Elzia as fast as my feet could carry me. She was surprised to see the snow too, but we both knew that this would cure everyone with the fever and destroy the fever. Snow at this point was a miraculous thing. We let the boys at to the fresh air so the fever they had would go away quicker. I did question myself if they would get even more sick, but then I remembered that the fresh air cures. Two weeks later the boys were back to normal, healthy that is. They were eating sleeping eating constantly without having to worry about dying! Elizia and I were proud that we kept them healthy because we promised to their parents we would not let them die. My situation wasn’t solved though which made me mad. I did not know where mama would be, and I didn't know if she was…

    I have a lot of family members that live in Jersey so, my grandparents and I would take the three or four hour trip up to Egg Harbor. I always remembered going through the Fort McHenry tunnel. I when I was younger I thought that there were trains inside the tunnel. That’s obviously not true, but I remembered seeing these “trains” so vividly that I was convinced that they were real. One time when we went to their house it had snowed a lot. And he plows had piled up the snow really high. At the time it probably looked like a sky rise building. But, I didn’t remember snow clothes. Of course that didn’t stop my cousin and I. So my cousin, sister, and I are playing in ten foot piles of filthy snow at 9:00 PM. It’s pitch black, my pants at this point are soaked and my legs are about to freeze off. I vaguely remember someone getting hurt,…

    Standing there surrounded in the fluffy, white layer of snow, arms at my side, and legs frozen in excitement. My thick blue and gray sweatshirt clinging to my skin feeling as if it was a mere t-shirt, it felt like a little baby clinging to his mother. It had been a very relaxed, humorous and joyful night at the Everett mall theaters. We had just finished watching the movie Ride Along, featuring Kevin Hart and Ice Cube. My friends and I were all stuffed up to our heads with popcorn, creamy butter, and different assortments of soda pops. In the cool, electrifying night air, the essence of popcorn was overwhelming where the group of friends stood chit-chatting in a circle. The pitter-patter of the snow was picking up at a breakneck pace. Despite all of this excitement, I only had one thought, to get to my Ithaca safe. To get home safe.…
