When the tourists arrived
If you are camping
It is bigger than Rhode Island
Although there are many cars
Unless you want an angry bear
Don't tease the animals
Until they can smell you
As we were driving by
Before we went to sleep
Since we had our backpacks
After we ate lunch
We pitched our tent
We went too near the falls
Because we were soaking wet
When the wind blows hard
If you want to stay dry
Although
