Paragraph example:

Where I’m From

I was born in Coos Bay, Oregon. It is on the southern coast. My parents lived in a small town called Bandon. It is a very beautiful little town with cute shops. There are restaurants with delicious seafood. Many people worked in fishing and logging, but these days there isn’t much logging. There are many cranberry farms in this area, and Bandon has a cranberry candy company. The beaches are very beautiful there, but the ocean is cold. There is a river called Coquille, and there is a lighthouse on the river near the beach. I love hiking in the coastal forests and walking on the beach.
