LAGOON MONSTER!!!

Heidy-Ho, Blogging Pals!  I so hope you will have a safe and happy Fourth of July.  I also hope you will remember why we celebrate that day.  It's important.

So... things here in Swampland have been relatively calm.  There was an interesting sighting recently, however, in which I think you may have an interest.  I ask you to recall that the elevation of the airport here is only 203' above sea level.  This is important so you can understand there is a LOT of water here and there are MANY critters slithering and sliding in it.  With that in mind, I present you with an apparent "lagoon creature" found in our pool recently.  Its origin is unknown.  Its purpose in finding its way across land to end up in the pool is unknown.  If it continues to appear, I may be forced to contact the LSU (Louisiana State University) swamp specialists for an opinion.

CREATURE SPOTTED!!!

IT HEADS FOR THE DEPTHS!!

IT REMAINS SUBMERGED, AVOIDING SCRUTINY!!  SLY!!

I will keep a close watch for this creature.  I will notify you if it continues to appear in the pool.  I certainly hope it is a friendly creature!!

On another note entirely, I hope we all can be as relaxed as "Demon", the tuxedo kitty that hangs out here (without any contribution to the household such as catching the occasional flying insect that has found its way in or alerting me to the presence of the pool creature!).  I don't know if I will ever feel quite as confident and quite as comfortable as he is obviously feeling below.

So enjoy your holiday.  Relax and take it like Demon.  :)

Until next post...
