The Waterfall Hike

1On a cool fall morning, Priya and her grandpa went to Pine Hill Park. Their brown dog, Biscuit, came too.

2The trail went up and up through tall trees. Soon Priya's legs felt heavy. "I'm too tired," she said, and she sat down on a big rock. Grandpa gave her a cold apple and a smile.

3Then Biscuit pricked up his ears. Priya heard a loud rushing sound. "That's the waterfall!" said Grandpa. Priya jumped up and ran the rest of the way.

4The waterfall crashed into a deep green pool. Cold spray tickled Priya's cheeks. Biscuit barked at the splashing water, and Priya laughed.
