Personal memory by parris fennell
2007 • Stockbridge, GA, USA
When I was a young I can remember that most of the land in Georgia was mostly woods and trees but as the years move on I notice more and more trees we're disappearing and a lot more acre sold sign and empty houses. The thing me and my friend used to do for fun is explore our environment and embrace nature, but now it is kinda hard to do that when nature itself is disappearing. I can remember the best day of my life was when me and my friend would walk to our favorite river spot and just chill out there and have fun, absorbing all the amazing beauty scenery in and just getting away from the stressfulness of the urban area.
