I Love to Walk
 

I love to walk to RL Stevens or ride my bike to school on Fridays. My school is in Santa Rosa, California in Sonoma County. In Santa Rosa, there is a lot of sun in winter. My school is a public neighborhood school. In the morning, I wake up with good weather. I live near my school which makes walking or riding my bike easy. I like to walk to school with my Dad, Juan and Mom, Luz. It is nice to walk with my family because we get to spend time with each other.
