Foxfire trip

           Foxfire was the best field trip so far. I really enjoyed the culture of the Appalachian people. Foxfire is very important because the way the people live there have no technology, while some of us can't live without technology, and whatever they want, they have to build or hunt. I saw many tools and learned how to use a shaving horse. I enjoyed the blacksmith shed, one because it was warm and I got to see an S shaped hook be made right in front of me. I never knew that the fire used to melt metal could get up to about 15,000 degrees. The whip was very impressive and sounded like a pistol. It surprised everyone. I personally hate the city and love this way of life at Foxfire.
