\"2016-04-20_f4\"<\/a>It’s been windy all month. Wednesday was no exception. I paddled against a brisk wind to try my hand at sinking. When I got to where I was going, I found a sheltered area in the sun and hung out there for a while to warm up. I wasn’t expecting to get chilled. It was much warmer on land.<\/p>\n

I had worn my new red thong under blue nylon shorts. I really had no idea what I was going to do. I probably would have wallowed and gone under if I hadn’t been chilled, or if the mud had been warmer.<\/p>\n

\"2016-04-20_f1\"<\/a>I shot video of my little foray into the mud, but I don’t think the video is very interesting. I found the bamboo pole that I gave someone to assist them in getting unstuck. The pole had been pushed about a foot down into the thick mud and left there. I’m glad I was able to find it. I had forgotten all about it.<\/p>\n

The unusual thing that I noticed on this trip was that the water was very warm. When I waded into the water to clean up, I was expecting it to be frigid, but it was about perfect. I don’t understand why the mud was cold when the water was warm.<\/p>\n

\"2016-04-20_f2\"<\/a>I’ve been super busy this season, and I don’t expect things to change anytime soon and I may have to do some traveling. If the weather is decent I should be able to slip out from time to time. Hopefully, I can get some good video and get it on-line for you to enjoy. I’ll do my best to keep this blog updated on my adventures. I should probably find a mud slave to help out around here.<\/p>\n

I hope everyone is well. Take care and thanks for stopping by.<\/p>\n
