that surrounded me. Nature abounded as far as the eye could see, and the only sounds to be heard were the peaceful murmurs of that which existed in the wilderness. As I sat there, my tent and sleeping bag the only signs of civilization for miles, my heart swelled with relief that I had decided to take this weekend camping trip. I could feel every muscle in my body gradually relaxing with every sight, every sound, every smell within this untouched slice of tranquility. It was hard to believe that anything could disrupt the serenity of this place . . . but I could not have been more wrong. Version 2: Exhausted, I took one last look around me. I had been camping for only two short days, but I could not wait to get home and recount the adventures of my short stay in peace and tranquility.
