I have been working on this diorama that shows some of the past and current resources in British Columbia. The river is important because they are used for gold panning and routes for trading, as well fishing. The mountains are used for mineral sites and certain fur like bear. People all a round took camping territories (staked claims) as seen in this picture marked as: Barker, Jones, and Cameron , and the unmarked tent is on Cameron's territory just so you know. This is made mostly out of paper mache and wax and the rest is made out of styrofoam and paint, pebbles and fir branches. I may still add more trees and a railway track to show the building of the Canadian Pacific Railway.
Curling seems easy but it really isn't. It takes a lot of strength to push a forty pound rock across
the ice and get it into the center. Only two people did it in the sessions I was in.
It was eight classes of curling in Penticton, and we did more than practice. We played boys against girls, we (the boys) won a lot. First of all, it is important to make sure your shoes are very clean before you go into the rink area. There are machines to clean them. And on your shoes, you wear tape on one foot to slide, and on the other foot you put a gripper, so you don't fall. At the end of curling, we got to use real sliders on our feet and then had a pizza party. In conclusion, I like curling. It's a fun game. I plan on doing it again next year.
