Beach Bums


Here we are at our farm pond, turned summer beach. The kids LOVE it, just as I did when I was little. We haven't gotten to swim as much this year do to odd weather and a little baby who likes to eat sand:)



Friends and family either love to join us or wouldn't dare. Would you like to swim with us, and the fish, turtles, frogs, and - shhh - snakes?

That is a whole lot bigger and cleaner than the farm ponds we used to swim in. I remember getting the hose-down afterward because we'd be so muddy!

It looks like they are having so much fun, but you couldn't pay me to step foot in there. I don't do snakes! ;)

Well, even this farm girl shys away from ponds. I would love to spend the day with you & the kiddos. You can come swim in our concrete one if you like.

This looks like so much fun! We used to swim in the irrigation "ditch" that parallels the Rio Grande behind my parents house. I thought it was a blast but later found most people wouldn't be caught dead in water where there might be live things swimming. Anyway, I'm in snakes and all!
