So, we need to write a poem for english or a competition. We must write based on Crossing Brooklyn Ferry by Walt Whitman. We should write about a 'crossing,' although that can go any way you want.

FLOOD-TIDE below me! I watch you face to face;

So this week has been February/mid-winter break. Yes, it is pointless, and no, I don't care anyway. On Monday we drove up to Mt. Snow in Vermont. It was pretty awesome. 4 hour drive.
