Saturday Smiles!

Someone has been walking on the water!

After dropping Michelle off at Cindy’s house the other day, I stopped at a little swampy area next to the roadway, as I am often given to do.  I wasn’t prepared for the Great Blue Heron that lifted up from the edge of the water as I pulled the Explorer into the little parking area.  But, I did find this!

The flip-flop is actually sitting on top of the algae on top of the water! Yeah, kinda gross, but interesting!

It is nearly 8 am and I am waiting for the crew to awaken and arise. Today’s schedule of events calls for traipsing off to the woods for some firewood! (about time!!!)

  • That swamp reminds me of pea soup! I don’t think I’d want pea soup with a used flip-flop in it though…come to think of it, I don’t think I’d want pea soup at all!

  • Do you think the rest of the person is underneath?

  • What an interesting picture. I’m glad you showed this and not the “payday candy bar”!

  • Pea soup? Pfffttttt! I don’t think so! Amazing how thick algae can grow!

    BILL! What a terrible thought! Hopefully, it is just litter!

    Frances, I nearly choked laughing at your comment…Mark and the kids kept asking, “What is so FUNNY?”. And all I could do was LAUGH!!!!!

  • Wow, that algae is amazing! I’m guessing there’s not much living underneath it in the water, as it’ll be blocking out pretty much every ray of sun.
