A Day in the Life of Me

A Day in the Life of Me
       
“What is it really like to live here? If you were to tell a story about living in Vermont to someone from another country, what story would you tell to show that person what it was like? What descriptive words could you use to help the reader create a mind movie about Vermont?  What things could you share with the reader to show them how if feels to be you for a day?  You may chose to tell them about maple syrup, cold snowy days,  mountains or fall leaves. Tell the person a story that would show him/her what your life is like. “
