Where they hide

By the pond is where they hide.

The snakes, the snapping turtles and the interesting insects.

The mosquitoes.

And, where there are mosquitoes, there are also the "helicopters". That's what we used to call them when we were kids, my brother and I.

In fact, they are Dragonflies.

And I got one! In fact, I got two of them.

Distracted. Bellies full, perhaps. Taking a nap. Who knows.

Off to prepare Chinese for dinner.

But first, play some Skip-Bo with Gordon. I hope I don't have to extract his foot off my butt again this time! He is good, but he cheats!!!!

Love ya'll.
