A possum is a tree-dwelling Australasian marsupial that typically has a prehensile tail.

• The possum is a mammal about the same size as a cat and males are larger and heavier than females.

• Possums have a long bushy tail, which is around a third of the total length.

• Possums have big ears, large, dark eyes, and long claws.

• Possum fur is soft and thick but the colour varies widely from brownish grey to almost black. The belly fur can range from white to ginger.

Possums live all across the United States, especially in the southeastern and midwestern parts of the country. They usually reside inside trees or logs.

possums eat birds,leaves,eggs,fruits and insects.

Squash.”Oh so soft,” I said when I first stepped on the cold soft icey snow. Boom! the snowball that Cameron had made. I slowly climbed up the snow mountain trying to get to Cameron but snow balls flies up in the air and landed on me. I finally made it to Cameron and had a huge snow fight. Snow on him, snow on me, snow on both of us. I had enough of throwing snow on Cameron and started targeting another person. I wondered who I should target now.”Grace!”I yelled. While Grace was climbing slowly up the mountain I threw a snowball and hit Grace. “Oh, you wanna hit me ?” “

Ouch!” I said when Grace hit me on the ear. Damn it was red. While we were fighting Mrs Hawke called us to get down from the snow. “We are going to have a snow fight,girls vs boys.Everybody started targeting anybody,boys targeting girls,and girls targeting boys. Snow balls on everybody.While we were fighting I accidently hit Leif. Boom! “Wow Teweti great aiming.” “

Sorry”I said.

I continued shooting snowballs at  Grace.While I was fighting I got hit in the leg hard.I fell on the snow slowly.When I was on the white snow I could hear people saying “Look Teweti is down shoot”.Snowballs flying up and landing on me. “Ouch ouch OUCH!.I quickly rise up from the snow and run to the back.While I was running a big snowball flew up in the air and land on me.Boom!. “That's it I’ve had enough”.I started making snowball and started shooting the girls. “Okay that's enough back to the bus”said Mrs Hawke.We walked back to the bus going to the information center to learn about the history about the mountain.
