Happy 4th of July! Went for a run with Wyatt to start the day off. My legs were so stiff and sore from what I think was the p90x I did Saturday that it took every ounce of effort I had to made the 12 mm pace that first mile. After mile 4, things finally starting feeling better. Not a lot of road-kill today. In fact, I didn't see any at all. But we did see a rabbit sitting in the middle of the water in a swampy area. We thought it was a strange rock at first, but it was certainly a rabbit. We threw some rocks near by to see if it was even alive. On the third rock, it finally twitched it's ears. What was wrong with that rabbit? Two options: 1- It is a rare breed of swamp rabbit, or 2- It was bitten by a snake and was paralyzed in place and the snake was waiting for it to die. The only thing it could move was it's ears. I'm going to have nightmares about that poor snake. Then, we got to see the p-town parade, and it was wonderful in all it's very specials ways that it can be wonderful. I was so excited when a guy with a bag of candy stopped by along the parade route to see if my daughter wanted to ride on the back of his ATV and throw out candy along the parade route! My baby was in the p-town parade. (Yes, I did happen to know who the guy was, I'm a bad mother, but not an irresponsible one). And then last the best of all, waiting in line for 20 minutes in 90 degree heat waiting for the oil to heat up so I could buy a delicious funnel cake. It was worth it. Tasty BBQ and swimming at Wyatt's house in the pm. Perfect day!
