What I did this Past Summer?
The topic I will talk about today, is what I did this past summer. What
I did this past summer? There was a lot of things I did this summer, I
basically had a good summer. I graduated from C.H. Yoe High School and left a
legacy there for future the Yoemen that will take the throne and probably win
several state championships. I also traveled across “The South” by “vehicle”.
The reason I say that, I traveled by vehicle because I listened to “On the road
again” by Willie Nelson. I do not know why I play this song, its fun to hear
over and over again. I guess it makes since when you travel state by state and
have adventures with your family. But again I traveled to Atlanta, Georgia to
go see my dads’ family, we made pit stops while on our way there. By meaning
that we took the long way to Atlanta, to tour around each state and have fun.
We toured through Baton Rouge, New Orleans, Hattiesburgh, Tuscaloosa,
Birmingham, Montgomery, Auburn, and finally Atlanta. The interesting thing
about this trip was going through Vidor, Texas. I only experienced
discrimination once in my life and it happen the second time in Vidor. I heard
stories about Vidor on how they discriminate the Mexican-Americans and African-Americans,
but I did not believe in it until some man said to my family and I “we don’t
accept your kind”. It did not bother me one bit, because I still eat and go to
sleep. Also I was spending time with my family. After all that confrontation,
we still got our snacks and left to our trip to Atlanta. As soon as we got to
Louisiana my sister wanted to go to Baton Rouge and New Orleans to go see the
“Death Valley” and the “Superdome”. She is a big fan of LSU and Saints, that is
why we took the long way. We continue on to our trip, we stopped at
Hattiesburgh, Mississippi and ate dinner and spend the night there. As soon as
we were ready to leave we caught a flat, but lucky me I remember to put the
spare in the back. We got back on the road and later toured Bryant-Denny
Stadium in Tuscaloosa, it was cool seeing where Alabama plays at. The next town
was Birmingham, that place had so much traffic I thought we would never get out
of there it took three hours. It was exhausting and five hours later we got to Atlanta.
We stayed there for a week and my uncles took us everywhere. They took us to
Six Flags, Braves game, Zoo, Aquarium, Olympic Park, and Forest Park. It was
fun spending time with them even though, I have not seen them in fourteen
years. But again the best part of my summer was graduating and having
“adventures” to Atlanta. On the way back home it was more ease, with all the
crazy stuff happening from Atlanta to good ole Cameron, Texas.
