I went in the lake real quick to get my furs wet.  That be different than the rain getting my furs wet (ICK) - HUGE difference.

This be Turtle Number One

Good morning Turtle Number Two!

Mr. and Mrs. Duck was having a morning swim.

Mom's new camera biggifies so big we could see somebuddy at home in the wood duck house across the cove.  Hey, wait a minute, that's not a wood duck!  Is that an owl?  Can anybuddy tell who is in the wood duck house?

Then we headed over there to Turtle Island.

But there was no turtles on Turtle Island.  Go figure.

We took a break and I had some chicken jerky.  Nommy!
