Cocoon mode,* day 19: On throwing stones in the presence of a big dog

Wasilla, Alaska, by 300 in Jacob, Kalib, Wasilla, dog, family

I needed to take a walk, but Lavina told me that Jacob and Kalib had already left. I was way behind. In fact, they had already reached the end of the driveway. So I went into the bedroom to get my walking shoes, but I was very sleepy and the bed looked good, so I decided to lay down for a few minutes.

I was not worried about catching them.

I laid down even longer than I intended. Quite a bit longer. Twenty minutes, maybe.

Still, I quickly caught up to them and discovered that they were disturbing the tranquil waters of Little Lake.

Kalib follows his father's example.

Kalib's rock did not make it to the water. So his father tries again.

Look! The rock bounced!

When it was over, Kalib had mud on his face, plus some kind of white stuff - I don't know what.

 

*Cocoon mode: Until I finish up a big project that I am working on, I am keeping this blog at bare-minimum simple. I anticipate about one month.
