Baby Clams!

 

We had a great afternoon. The boys did a bunch of work (I’m not exactly sure what), and it was really hot, so suggested we go to the lake! He couldn’t find his shorts so he cut a pair of jeans into shorts. Then we went! We took with us, of course…poor dog was SO hot!

We had lots of fun! I found about five clams (they aren’t good to eat…a friend of ours tried Lake Elmo clams and said they were gross!)…one was rotten and dead and stunk SO bad!

and caught some fish! said in warm water there isn’t as much oxygen or something, so that’s why they’d all gathered near the shore. Then and came along, and just scooped them up! They brought them over to us, and we kind of gathered around and he took them and was messing with them. One was dead already, but he tried reviving the other one. , I think it was, came up with a dragonfly nymph baby thing, and pretended to feed the nymph to the dead fish, so he stuck it in the dead fish’s open mouth and made it chew! It was funny!

I rescued one of those electric-blue dragonflies that was stuck in the water…I scooped it up out of the water, and it just so happened to lit on my middle finger. being the ditz I am didn’t realize that, and held up my middle finger and said “Hey guys, look, a dragonfly!” And says “, look what Anne’s doing to us!” and I’m like OH NO and so I just put up all my fingers!

There was also HUGE dragonflies, that were silver and black and very neat, and they looked like miniature helicopters!

is almost totally fearless in the water! She had her life jacket on and was “swimming” around so cute. opened all my clams for , well, found somebody’s sunflower seeds and said “Baby clams!” and opened one…it had a spider in it!
was even swimming around a little, with a flotilla of life jackets!

The boys and and jumped off a log…and they played camel wars!

After the lake, we decided to have hot dogs for dinner instead of spaghetti, so we went to Walmart and got the hot dog makings, then stopped by the gas station closest to home to get ice. and I (being two of the most presentable) went in, and while we were coming out, there was a guy outside. He didn’t open the door. So I did. and I go out and I hold the door open for this guy. (What happened to chivalry?!?) “Thanks, dude,” I muttered and when I got in the van was like, “It was so nice of you to hold the door open for that guy!”

Well, the natives are restless so I better go! G’night!
