Some of our _______ are funny, especially from the early years when our children were little. Once, we _______ along Chalk Creek.

He was _______, and his crying let the whole campground know it. So _______ tying him up, I just kept a close eye on him. It _______ — he didn’t end up in the creek. My three-year-old, however, did.

9 . There are many natural waterfall wonders located across the USA. Here are a few that are   definitely worth a visit:

Arethusa Falls | New Hampshire

Located in Crawford Notch State Park in northern New Hampshire, Arethusa Falls takes its   name from Greek mythology (神话).Arethusa was a nymph (小仙女) whose name means “the   waterer.” That’s pretty appropriate since they fall 140 feet down a cliff (悬崖).

Feather Falls | California

Located near the city of Oroville in the Plumas National Forest, Feather Falls can be seen from the middle arm of Lake Oroville, but the best views can be found on the Feather Falls Scenic Trail. March, May and June are considered to be the best times to hike to the falls since the wildflowers are in bloom, temperatures are cooler and the falls’ water flow is at the highest.

Multnomah Falls | Oregon

Multnomah Falls is the tallest waterfall in the state of Oregon. Located 30 minutes from Portland on the Columbia River Gorge, Multnomah Falls delivers the awe-inspiring sight of a 620-foot waterfall. According to Native American lore (传说), Multnomah Falls was created to win the heart of a young princess who wanted a hidden place to bathe. For a closer view, take the path up to Benson Bridge. The bridge is named after Simon Benson, a Portland businessman who owned the site in the early 1900s before donating the falls to the City of Portland, which later transferred ownership to the Forest Service.

Cumberland Falls | Kentucky

Known as the “Niagara of the South,” these dramatic falls feature a 125-foot wide curtain of water. The falls are located in Cumberland Falls State Resort Park in southern Kentucky and are home to a natural phenomenon not found anywhere else in the Western Hemisphere: a colorful moonbow can be seen on the nights of a full moon as well as on several nights before and after.
