Well the Cannal 2

So I talked about the canal. I talked about going in the empty canal. It was so much fun.

So  playing at the canal and in it, we would get on our bikes and travel down the canal road. We would travel for hours. We would pack snacks. So it was so much fun.

The one thing that wasn't good was the dogs. So, being out of town, no one had their dogs contained. So you would ride as fast as you could past the dogs. That was stressful. And you had to return the same way. 

It was always fun riding bikes. Unfortunately the next day one tire would be flat.  There is something called Goat head is a weed that will deflate the tires.  That what happened  a numerous times. 

Donc, en jouant sur le canal et dedans, nous allions sur nos vélos et descendions la route du canal. Nous voyagions pendant des heures. Nous emballions des collations. C'était tellement amusant.

La seule chose qui n'était pas bonne, c'était les chiens. Donc, étant hors de la ville, personne n'avait ses chiens contenus. Donc vous rouliez aussi vite que vous le pouviez devant les chiens. C'était stressant. Et vous deviez revenir de la même façon.

C'était toujours amusant de faire du vélo. Malheureusement, le lendemain, un pneu serait à plat. Il y a quelque chose qui s'appelle la tête de chèvre est une mauvaise herbe qui va dégonfler les pneus. C'est ce qui s'est passé de nombreuses fois.

Jugando en el canal y en él, nos subíamos a nuestras bicicletas y viajabamos por la carretera del canal. Viajaríamos durante horas. Empacaríamos bocadillos. Así que fue muy divertido.

Lo único que no era bueno eran los perros. Así que, estando fuera de la ciudad, nadie tenía sus perros contenidos. Así que cabalgarías tan rápido como pudieras más allá de los perros. Eso fue estresante. Y tenías que volver de la misma manera.

Siempre fue divertido andar en bicicleta. Desafortunadamente, al día siguiente un neumático estaría pinchado. Hay algo llamado cabeza de cabra es una mala hierba que desinflará los neumáticos. Eso fue lo que pasó en numerosas ocasiones.

The canal

Let me tell you about the setting in Yakima Valley. There are canals, big canals and little canals. The big canals, two of which run through the lower valley, are for watering the crops. The little canals run through the city. I enjoy watching you water your gardens, etc. The big canals are upwards of fifteen to twenty feet across and eight to twelve feet deep, with swiftly moving water at five miles an hour. If you are thrown into a canal, there is little hope of getting out alive.

So it's a wise choice not to put yourself in that situation. One of the things we did do. Where's in the fall? The cow will dry up.

So we'd walk along the canal for miles, just searching what we could find. Weirdford, fine stereos.

V c r's tape decks. The people we'll throw in the canal. It'd be like a treasure hunt. In some air, the cow, the water sat in there long enough and that when an early freeze happened in the fall, it froze over for the lengths of half a football field and we go and ice skate with their shoes and try to bust it up. Generally have fun as kids. Yes, this went wrong. Sometimes there's many a story of it going wrong. It may not have a lot of water. But it's freezing water that can be upwards of six feet deep, spanning a football field. Did I almost lose my life? Yes, was I thankful be alive? Yes was I cold yes. Did my friend laugh at me? Yes.

Did my friend save me? Yes, and then start laughing me? Yes, he did. Did I get him back later? Yes,  well, that's all for this post. I will do another pose why expand on the danger. A walk in the canal There's more dangerous, trust me. What else you do being  a Gen X  kid.
