I was on the St. Lawrence River for a barbecue with my entire mom's side of the family. It was a very special time; the food was great, the people were lovely, and the food was mouth-watering.

The St. Lawrence River is a large river flowing approximately from southwest to northeast in the middle of North America. It connects the Great Lakes to the Atlantic Ocean. It is considered the primary drainage conveyor of the Great Lakes Basin. It is 744 miles long.

Habitat: wetland/river

What I found interesting: the sky was so blue and beautiful. Also, I was thinking how perfect would that cliff be for cliff jumping!
