The high water persists, and the mercury is dropping. Starting Tuesday, it’s supposed to clear up and maybe we’ll get a week of dry weather. The way it’s been, I’m not holding my breath.

I went out on the creek on Friday at low tide, and the water was easily 24 centimeters higher than it should have been. Then we got another 2 centimeters of rain on Saturday, and I went back out today (Sunday) for a paddle at low tide, just to see what it looked like. It was similar to Friday; maybe even a little higher because of the recent rainfall. Everything is so saturated now, I’d expect the creek to stay high for several more days, at least.

I’m going to find some mud to play in before winter, even if I have to mix it myself. My biggest fear is that this year is a harbinger of things to come. I know I have had months of frustration in the past with catching a low tide, but this entire year has been very wet and the tides have been really unpredictable. I guess I should be happy that I finished my Making of a Mud Movie movie. It wasn’t easy to get the last couple shots I needed. There were days when I had 20 minutes to shoot before the rising tide covered the mud.

In case anyone is concerned, the storms didn’t really have much impact where I live. We got a lot of rain, but just enough to be a major inconvenience. We didn’t get the flooding that South Carolina got.

I’m going to find somewhere to get muddy while the weather is still mild. I’m really anxious to shoot something awesome, so stay tuned!

The sun came out today for the first time in a week. Sadly, the forecast is for rain the rest of the week. With the higher than usual tides caused by the closer than usual moon, and all the rain we’ve been having, I’m afraid it will be at least two more weeks before I’ll be able to go mudding in the swamp. I may do something in the back yard when it stops raining long enough.

Recently, I renewed my ambition to create a deep mud pit in the woods behind my house. This has been a rainy summer, so the ground has been super saturated. While poking around, I found a spot where the ground beneath the tree roots is spongy. I’m hoping I can dig deep enough to make it interesting, and back-fill the hole with peat and maybe some sawdust. I would love to have a pit where I can go completely under with little to no effort.

This has been a slow mud year. I hope everyone is doing well. I finished my first draft of my making of a mud movie, movie. I’m trying to figure out the sound track, then I’ll have to release it. My biggest problem is I still don’t know how to release it. I lost a major source of income, so I hate to give away a fine piece of work, but I really want lots of people to see it, and that means I’ll have to give it away. I’ve considered giving away a low resolution version and selling the full resolution version. That didn’t work well when I tried it in the past, and Clips4Sale is not an efficient way to handle donations, since they keep 40%.

Stay tuned. I’ll have to work on something this week. I won’t be able to shoot because it will be raining, nonstop. Thanks for dropping by. Sorry there isn’t much going on.

This picture is the epitome of the past few weeks, for me. If we’re not getting a deluge that floods the creek for days, we’re getting showers almost daily that make shooting nearly impossible.

Apparently, the moon is not passing directly overhead, so our tides are just lame. I haven’t actually looked at the moon, lately; mostly because it’s been too cloudy. However, our tides are separated by 40 minutes day-to-day, rather than the normal, which is closer to 50 minutes.

Being the glutton for punishment that I am, I’m going to venture out on the creek this afternoon to see if the tide is low enough to expose some good mud. If you don’t hear from me, soon, it means; a) I got rained out or the low tide was pathetic [again], or b) I got eaten by an alligator, finally.

I chased an alligator up the creek the last time I was out. It kept going under and resurfacing, but it left a trail of bubbles when it went under, so I was able to paddle along with it. I shot some GoPro video every time the alligator surfaced, but the wide angle lens on the GoPro makes it almost useless for anything more than 10 feet away. I got really close to it, once, but as soon as it realized it was surfacing a few feet from me, it did a 180, kicked up some major turbulence  in the water, and disappeared. It was a pretty good sized gator.

Oh well. Wish me luck for this afternoon. If I get some mud and don’t get eaten, I’ll have an update!

I was up late, last night, and I needed to be in the swamp by 08:30 to take full advantage of whatever low tide was available. We’ve had a lot of rain the past few days. Today was the first sunny day we’ve had this week, so I was anxious to get out. As it turned out, I got a late start. I arrived at the mud well after nine. The tide wasn’t super low, but it was low enough for several of my spots to be exposed.

I knew that low tide wasn’t going to last long. I had two things working against me; 1) the amount of water coming down the creek from the recent rains, and 2) the upcoming high tide was going to be higher than normal. I knew when those two forces started moving against each other, the water was going to pile up fast.

The other thing that happens when we get a lot of rain is that trash gets washed into the creek with the runoff. I can’t paddle past trash without picking it up. That slowed me down a bit, also. When I did get to the spot I picked to get muddy, there was lots of exposed mud, and it looked really good. It was about then that I noticed the current had reversed and the tide was coming in. I didn’t have time to set up to shoot a movie, so I grabbed my GoPro and took it with me into the mud for a few minutes of fun before the rising tide made it all disappear.

My visit to the mud was short, but it was still enjoyable. After mudding, I went back out to the main creek and took a short swim to cool off. Then I paddled back to my car, collected some trash from along the road, packed up everything, and headed home. The entire trip took about 2.5 hours. It was just enough of a tease to make me horny. I’ve been pretty busy this week, but I’ll probably find something to get myself off later today, if nothing unexpected comes up. TMI? 🙂

p.s. The frames you see here are from the GoPro video, but I’m not sure what will happen to the video, since I don’t have any good audio to go with it. The last frame (bottom left) shows the tide creeping up on me. I’ve already used some of the tide water to rinse the front of my shorts.

I had some time, so I edited the video I shot yesterday and added it to my clip store. In the description in the clip store I allude to the fantasy that was playing out in my head, as I lie on my back, masturbating. I imagined someone sitting on my crotch, facing me, and leaning forward with their hands on my shoulders. My face was precariously close to disappearing under the mud, so it would only take a subtle push and the mud would close over my face, leaving me unable to breathe. As you might guess, in the fantasy, I was bound and unable to struggle.

It was that fantasy that pushed me over the edge. There is some more action leading up to the orgasm scene, and a brief scene after, but who cares? The camera was perfectly focused and nicely framed, so you won’t miss a thing. You can find the clip here: Cum With Me, 2015-07-30
