Quote:
“I halted for a moment to gaze down into the beautiful pure blue crevasses and to drink at the lovely blue wells, the most beautiful of all Nature’s water-basins, or at the rills and streams outspread over the ice-land prairie, never ceasing to admire their lovely color and music as they glided and swirled in their blue crystal channels and potholes, and the rumbling of the moulins, or mills, where streams poured into blue-walled pits of unknown depth, some of them regularly circular as if bored with augers.” (Muir 175).
Prompt:
In this quote, Muir describes the glacial field that he is crossing in vivid detail. Choose a place that you enjoy and try to describe it in as much detail as possible without naming it. Think about all five of your senses: touch, taste, sight, sound, and smell, and try to write how this place affects all five. See if your partner can guess the place you are describing.
