Discovery NotesOn a warm, sunny weekend, my cousin came to visit and we decided to visit his one friend that is studying at Duquesne. While at her apartment, I thought it was a good idea to gather soil at a nearby area. The area was located in South Side and was very well vegetated with leaves and trees. The soil was a light brown but was moist due to previous rain showers.
Naming NotesBamBam was a fictional character my twin sister created when we were younger. She always said BamBam would become famous one day. The number 12 is the jersey number I wore for every sport I played.
