Summer Adventures at the Pond

During the long, humid weeks of summer, the youngsters with adventurous hearts seek satisfaction in one of the oldest, dirtiest and yet most satisfying of past times: they go to the local pond! Here they can find things real and unreal to stimulate their minds. They can find the reality of frogs and snakes, crayfish and turtles, cool creatures from the primeval past. They can test speed and reflexes in the capture of these critters.

Here too, they can sometimes fall into the mire and become messier than the things they try and catch. At the pond, the youngster can find the creations of the mind.  Is that not a goblin hiding behind that rock?  Is there not a dinosaur swimming just under the water, it's eyes peering out?  Could this pond not the landing zone for an alien invasion, bent on world conquest? 

Ahh, the joys of it all!

Then there is the return home, often a mess, sometimes with 'friend' in hand.  Why does mommy scream so when we bring our 'friends' in?  Why the insistence on going into the bathtub?

We had plenty of fun in the water already!
