Journal #5: Connections to course material; the future of my site

I visited wash park last week with my parents over homecoming weekend. It was a lot colder than last visit and the snow was very pretty. At this point many of the leaves had fallen. The weather was roughly 30 degrees F. Here are some photos I took on my recent visit: *swipe to view all*

Connections to course material:

I think theres a few relations between the class material and wash park. First off, in group one’s presentation on “where can I go camping,” they talked about specific public and national parks which are open to the public for camping. Although Wash park is a public park, in section 10 of their park rules they state overnight camping is off limits; “No overnight camping, tents, enclosures, or other unpermitted structures such as air castles, pools, or water slides,” (FANS).
