Yep! I did it...

I wore snake boots tonight! Just call me sexy (Hot-sweaty) Momma, lol. Actually I wore Fred's snake boots as his are zip up and mine are slip on. Slip on snake boots are a pain to get on but Fred's zippered ones aren't. Maybe I should have retied them though as they look a bit sloppy, oops!


We haven't seen any snakes yet but I haven't run the feed/bait down to the Hog trap yet either.

We actually went down to the property and I did some measuring and mowing. We have a project in the works and I'll post photos as it develops. (P.S. I'm not telling what it is either, y'all will just have to wait and see :o)


And No I am not practicing my crop circles either, lol...

Afterwards we headed down to the creek. I didn't have the lens I wanted but I thought I'd take some photos anyways and Michael wanted to practice his rock throwing skills. By the way he is NOT wearing a necklace it's a holder for his bullets, ya know the kind you sling over your chest, lol...He has quite the imagination!

Nice Form...I made him keep throwing rocks until I caught the splash...I think it took 3 rocks and Michael getting disgusted with me before I said enough, lol. Really need the tripod and a different lens perhaps?

White Top Sedge, it grows on the banks of the Creek.

Hmmm...Michael what are you doing?..."Trying to catch minnows, Momma."
~


He wasn't having much luck...
~


"MICHAEL!!! Don't you dare kill those minnows!" I think he's picking things up at school and I don't like it, sheesh! He's been coming home and telling me that so and so tried to kill a toad or so and so stomped on a bug, ekk.

We also found this den by the kids pool. Not sure what dug it. I did find some tracks but couldn't match them with anything in Michael's Texas Animal track book...If it floods it will be under water so I hope what ever it is that it can swim.

Reflection on the kids pool...We saw a good sized bass in the kids pool. If the water level gets any lower we may have to catch him and put him in the bigger part of the creek.

Yep those are some sexy snake boots. Bet you feel safer now. Will be watching to see what the project is. A round camp house? We saw a very large round hog trap recently.

Those boots are quite a fashion statement...very chic! You didn't say what lens you were using, but it looks like it worked out well for you.
