Shelby Farms is near Cordova. I live in Germantown, so I can go there in about 15 minutes. I often go to the park near my home for jogging or walking. I sometimes go to the Shelby Farms with my friend or sister. I go to the Shelby Farms when I want to be quiet or I feel depressed. I start from my home after I prepare old newspapers. I spread out newspapers in the shade of a tree when I arrive there, and I lie down on the newspapers and look at the blue sky. The wind blows on my face, and leaves fall off the tree, and I deeply breathe fresh air. Sometimes big acorns fall off the tree. If I lie still for a while, I refresh myself. It seems to be the best gift that nature gives to me. Nature is the best physician.
I like Shelby Farms because it is different from other parks. An ordinary park has flat grass and few trees, and is near a roadway. Shelby Farms has small ponds, lake, buffalo, hill, forest and ducks in the lake. I like to be able to see various sightings. There are grazing buffalo on the plain. Some people are feeding ducks, and enjoying leisure time with family. My feeling becomes better through the people. I can enjoy my own time if I want. Shelby Farms is harmonious between nature and human, and these things give to me a peace. These things make Shelby Farms special.
