Today was the day that Teddy and Mabel 9 00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:48,559 Speaker 1: We're gonna go see the Colorado Rocky Mountains. Have you 10 00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:54,400 Speaker 1: ever seen very big mountains before? Mountains are so cool 11 00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 1: and sometimes very very big. And at the very top 12 00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 1: of big, big mountains, do you know that white stuff 13 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:07,280 Speaker 1: up there? Yeah, snow. Where I live there is not 14 00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:10,640 Speaker 1: very much snow, and so when we go visit the 15 00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:15,640 Speaker 1: mountains and see snow at the top, that is really cool. Well, 16 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:18,760 Speaker 1: Teddy and Mabel, we're very excited to go see the 17 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 1: Colorado Rocky Mountains. They packed all their hiking gear, put 18 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:28,680 Speaker 1: on their hiking boots, and were ready for an amazing adventure. Mabel, 19 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:33,320 Speaker 1: are you ready? Said Teddy? Yep, I got all my stuff. Uh, 20 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:36,640 Speaker 1: could you grab the water bottles for us? Yeah, Teddy 21 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:40,400 Speaker 1: went to grab two water bottles. That's really important when 22 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:42,920 Speaker 1: you're going on a hiking adventure. You gotta stay hydrated 23 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 1: and drink plenty of water. Well, Teddy and Mabel had 24 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 1: all their things ready and them and their family they 25 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:56,440 Speaker 1: were ready for an amazing adventure. They drove out way 26 00:01:56,680 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 1: far into the mountains where the trail had been. Do 27 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 1: you know what a trail head means? Yeah, trail head 28 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:08,520 Speaker 1: means it's like the beginning of a trail, like the 29 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 1: head of if the trail was a body and the 30 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 1: trail head was the top, that is the starting point. 31 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,120 Speaker 1: Teddy and Mabel had planned out this adventure for a 32 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 1: very long time. They even had maps of this trail, 33 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 1: and they knew that this trail would lead them all 34 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:28,440 Speaker 1: the way to some snow, which would be really cool 35 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 1: to see in the summertime when it's not snowing, that's snow. 36 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 1: It melts and it turns to what is what happens 37 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 1: when snow melts? Does it turn to lava or candy 38 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:48,640 Speaker 1: or water? Water? Yes? Yes, yes, of course snowed melts 39 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 1: and turns to water which starts flowing into rivers or waterfalls, 40 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 1: and it's really really cold water. If you touch it, 41 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 1: it would make you shiver and maybe turn you instantly 42 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 1: to ice. And no, it won't turn youat ice, but 43 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 1: it's very cold. And Teddy and Mabel really wanted to 44 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 1: see the beginning of where these rivers started from the 45 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 1: melting snow. They had a long hike ahead of them. 46 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:19,399 Speaker 1: It was going to take several hours to get there, 47 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 1: but it was worth it. Oh, Teddy, could you check 48 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:30,360 Speaker 1: the map? Teddy pulled out the map, and hey, it 49 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:33,920 Speaker 1: looks like we're getting closer. They had already been hiking 50 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 1: for several hours. Teddy, Mabel and their parents were working 51 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 1: really hard to get up this very tall mountain up ahead. 52 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 1: They heard a strange sound. Real, what was that? Was that? 53 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 1: A mountain lion? H Everybody, hold still, don't run, don't 54 00:03:55,240 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 1: move a muscle. Teddy, Mabel and their family all stood still. 55 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 1: It's not good to run away from a bear or 56 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 1: something scary. You gotta stand your ground and make you 57 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 1: look really big and brave. All right, I don't hear 58 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:16,840 Speaker 1: it anymore. Let's keep walking. They kept walking, and it's 59 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 1: a good thing that sound didn't come from the direction 60 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,039 Speaker 1: that they were headed, because that wouldn't be smart if 61 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:24,479 Speaker 1: you were to walk towards that scary sound. But it 62 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 1: was off to the side. Then they saw some trees 63 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 1: start to shake, and all of a sudden, there it was. 64 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:38,800 Speaker 1: Teddy and Mabel both started to scream, and so did 65 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 1: the big monster. Uh turn it me, it yelled, Wait 66 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:50,680 Speaker 1: a second, what what are you? It looked like a 67 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:54,719 Speaker 1: ginormous white bear, but not like a bowler bear. But 68 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 1: I don't know. 69 00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 2: I'm himy They abominable snowman, and what are you doing 70 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 2: up here? 71 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:07,919 Speaker 1: Who are you? Well, my name's Mabel and this is 72 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 1: Teddy and my parents, and we were coming on a 73 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:14,039 Speaker 1: hiking adventure and we're really sorry that we scared you. 74 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:18,600 Speaker 1: Well you kind of scared us too. Well, I'm sorry 75 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 1: for scaring you. But you see, there's this evil man here. 76 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 1: He's trying to steal all the water, the clean snow melt, 77 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:33,040 Speaker 1: and I'm I have to stop him. Wait who is 78 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 1: trying to steal the water? I don't know, but he's 79 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 1: very stinky, and I don't know why he wants all 80 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:45,160 Speaker 1: this water. Teddy and Mabel looked at each other. Did 81 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:50,279 Speaker 1: he just say stinky? Said Teddy. Mabel turned and looked 82 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:56,159 Speaker 1: at the Abominable Snowman and said, does he look like this? 83 00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:01,040 Speaker 1: They pulled out a picture and the Abominable snow shook 84 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 1: his head. Yes, yes, that's exactly what he looked. How 85 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 1: do you have a picture of him? It's doctor Stinky Breath. 86 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 1: Don don dn. Teddy and Mabel we're on the spy 87 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 1: team and we're always on the lookout for Doctor Stinky Breath, 88 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 1: and they never imagined that he would be way up 89 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 1: here in the mountains. Okay, well, we gotta figure out 90 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:29,839 Speaker 1: a way to help this abominable Snowman stop Doctor Stinky Breath. 91 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:32,480 Speaker 1: I don't know why he wants this water, but it's 92 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 1: probably for something evil. Teddy and Mabel and their whole 93 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 1: family put on their spy gear and got to work. 94 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 1: All right, mister Abominable Snowman said Teddy, we're gonna need 95 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:49,480 Speaker 1: you to hide, and then when that doctor Stinky Breath 96 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 1: comes out again, you're gonna need to scare him as 97 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,159 Speaker 1: with the biggest roar that you possibly can. 98 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:59,360 Speaker 2: Can you do that? I don't know if I can. 99 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 2: He's very scary looking. You're the Abominable Snowman, said Mabel. 100 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:09,040 Speaker 2: Everyone's afraid of you. 101 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: You can do this? Are you sure? I guess the 102 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 1: Abominable Snowman was not very confident. Do you know what 103 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 1: it means to be confident? Being confident means that you're 104 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 1: sure of yourself and your abilities. So this Abominable Snowman, 105 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,640 Speaker 1: who I know, we can all agree that he is 106 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 1: very scary looking and shouldn't have any problems scaring off 107 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 1: doctor Stinky Breath. He needs to believe that for himself. Yeah. Confidence, 108 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 1: It's not about being you know, I'm better than you, 109 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 1: but it's just about believing what's true. The Abominable Snowman 110 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 1: needs to believe and be confident that he can scare 111 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 1: off doctor Stinky Breath. All right, well, I guess I 112 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 1: can try. We know that you can, said Teddy, okay, ah, 113 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 1: how do you do that? Well, sometimes wech like we 114 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 1: choose to be brave as on the spy team when 115 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 1: we count to three, then it helps us be brave. Okay, 116 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 1: I guess I can try that. The Abominable Snowman took 117 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 1: to his secret position where he was gonna hide and 118 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,640 Speaker 1: then jump out and scare off doctor Stinky Breath. He 119 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:27,239 Speaker 1: hid in some bushes and to himself. He counted a three, one, 120 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:36,600 Speaker 1: A two, oh dear, a three. Ah. You should have 121 00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:40,320 Speaker 1: seen doctor Stinky Brett's face. He was so afraid of 122 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 1: that scared abominable snowman he ran for the hills and 123 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:47,840 Speaker 1: was never seen there again. He had given up in 124 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 1: his pursuit of collecting this very special cold water.
