In Class Work Week 4
Part 2

A tall pine tree stands all by itself. Its green color is dull most likely due to age and the cold winter weather. Many branches are dead and hang bare showing the poor condition of the tree. Lights are still loosely hanging off its branches from Christmas. Nearby, there is a flag pole which holds the American flag and the state of Maine flag. Both flags flap continuously in the wind. The edges are frayed from age. The colors are worn from extensive time outside. My observation is interrupted as a guy steps outside. I immediately note his clothing attire. He is only wearing shorts and a sweatshirt to protect him from the cold. I wonder why he isn’t wearing warmer clothes in twenty-two degree weather. I shiver just looking at him. A baseball cap rests on top of his head. The raven on his hat represents the Baltimore Ravens. He is most likely walking around expressing his content with the outcome of the Super Bowl last night.

  1. I like how you bear down here in what were already good details and push the material, squeezing everything out of it that it will yield--nice.
