Musing on twigs that submerge.
This was my view for most of the day yesterday. It really was that blue.
And here’s what will really make you mad.
The water was warm. Okay, not middle of August bathwater warm but warm enough that I really enjoyed swimming.
The kids and I are visiting my sister for spring break. If the kids weren’t at the beach this is what they were doing.
Sitting outside last night, the kids were across the lake in the kayaks.
My sister sat up and said, “What is that?”
I saw a bitty twig.
“It’s a twig,” I replied. She thought it might be an alligator. Well, no way to know unless you investigate. So I got up and walked toward the lake. As I got closer and closer to the floating twig, it started to change shape..or was that my imagination?
I got almost up to it and yelled, “If it was something, it would have disappeared by now.”
And with that it submerged.
Later we saw him (or her.)
My sister said in Tampa the other day a woman went into her bathroom to find a 7-foot alligator in the bathtub.
Do you know how big that it? She said it was hissing at her…she shut the door and put a table in front of it.
They surmised it came in through the dog door.
Are you believing this?
All I can say is I looked under my bed last night.
Keep hands and legs inside the kayak and pets out of the bathroom – you think loosing a fish was bad.
The TV talking head said to watch out — it is mating season. That must be some loved-drunk gator. Wonder who (or what) he thought he’d find in that house?
Holy crap! Um….thanks for sharing for my #Birthaversary….?
No really, thanks!
Wow! so was it actually an alligator?
I would be full on panic mode.
Although, up here in Canada, all we have to worry about are beavers. but seriously, have you seen the teeth on beavers??!!
scary.
