First of all, sorry for my less than enthusiastic announcing voice. I sure don’t have any intentions of becoming a narrator any time soon, LOL! Anyway, it took me a while to come up with an idea for this assignment. My brother and I went on a hike in the woods the other day, and we were both thinking of something that we could do for the assignment while we were there. He came up with the idea of doing his on a Bigfoot encounter, so we both got really absorbed in creating that scenario. It wasn’t until we got home later that day that I realized I still needed to come up with an idea for mine! So, I eventually decided that I would do some kind of advertisement or public announcement on the same area that we went hiking. I figured you should probably hear something about the area that might be a little more comforting than being eaten by Sasquatch! For any of you that aren’t familiar with it, the area we were in is most often referred to as the Bohemia Mining District or Bohemia Mines and is roughly 30 miles or so southeast of Cottage Grove. You might have also heard of the Bohemia Mining Days festival that takes place every July in Cottage Grove. It has, without a doubt, become my favorite area to explore. I’ve gone up in there for almost as long as I can remember! There’s so much to see and do! For anyone who’s interested I will post a couple links on here to sites with more info. on the area. Hope you enjoy the video!
