Everything takes place there and that is where the campers dig there holes. The camp was kinda like a small village with tents lifted off the ground so that water couldn't get in. The place was super dusty and it never rained. You had to wear long clothes even though it was hot because if you didn't you would get bad sun burn. Last the camp was in a far away place from everything so even if the campers wanted to escape they would die in starvation because nothing was even close to the camp]]> 2017-10-25 15:00:59 UTC https://padlet.com/jaredmartin814/2r3c04qq23lj/wish/200446044 jaredmartin814 https://padlet.com/jaredmartin814/2r3c04qq23lj/wish/200499292 The yellow spotted lizard symbolizes the wordiness of the campers.
