Title: Christmas & New Year in a Southern Swamp
Post by: Tom on January 01, 2002, 11:25:28 AM
Here is Jeff, standing in unfamiliar surroundings, in the hardwood swamp behind my house a couple of days after Christmas while Lake Effects storms pummeled Michigan and RavioliKid in Buffalo, NY.

Ok Tom.
He`s been standing out there long enough, let the lad in.

Happy New Year.

He almost looks like a wild animal, try putting some table scraps out to see if you can get him to come closer.  :D :D :D

I had one of those lower Michigan swampers hanging around in the bushes behind my house and couldn`t get rid of the *DanG thing once the kids started feeding it.
It got hit by a car late one night, I think I still have its skin somewhere in the basement.
The two look very similar.

Those peas must have been awfully good, to coax him out of the tree. :D :D :D :D

Tom, are you teasing Jeff with that can of peas again? That why he was heading in your general direction. All looks like monkey business to me, :D ;D
