History

History of my place

To my knowledge and what I’ve heard the pond is manmade. Due to the lack of information I have, the history of my pond is going to be based more off of my history and less on the history and background. I’m not going to leave you completely dry of the history as I still hold some knowledge dealing with the actual history and background.

When we moved to the house we live in now I was in third grade. Unaware of the actual age of the pond I can assure you it’s at least 11 years old as that is how long ago I discovered it. In addition to that, as I was talking to this man I knew (Frank) and he informed me that when they were building the pond there was a dirt bike jump coming out of it. The fun he had jumping the pond, from what I could tell, happened at least 4 years prior to the conversation I had with Frank 10 years ago.
            As for the “My History” part of this project I can provide you with sufficient information to explain why it’s important to me.

I stated earlier that I moved into my house in 3^rd grade, and you received a brief explanation of the actual history. Unfortunately you’re unaware of what makes this place special to me, so here we go. One day I got adventurous and decided to ride my dirt bike back the dirt road next to my house. I chugged on over to the road and continued on back this dirt road that I was completely unfamiliar with. As I was getting farther along on this road the trees started to get thicker and closer to the road. I thought to myself “Is this just a dead end?” and was seconds away from turning around.  It was then when I first discovered this random, beautiful pond in the middle of a giant field that I now value so much.
