Squirrels Can Swim Too!

I spent the whole day yesterday kayaking. Everyone kept saying we were crazy to be out on the river when it was so cold, but it was gorgeous. the leaves here are just starting to change. Yeah i had to wear 3 layers till the fog burned off and the sun warmed a bit, but it was so worth it. the water was a little high so the current was swift. We saw a ton of Herons, a bald eagle and a squirrel…swimming across the river. It was so funny looking. we all back paddled so we could watch and see if he made it across and he did.  He looked like a dog paddling, but his big bushy tail was floating on top of the water and when he came out on the other side he looked like a drowned rat. lol…never saw that before!

I had to work last night….in fact I have to work all the time. I’m pulling like 80 hours a week. I haven’t had a day off since September 16th.  Aw well…Some of the younger kids that work at the restaurant were complaining about this other girl that works on day shift and i told them i went to school w/her. They all couldn’t believe it and asked how old i was. They all thought i was 22. Nice!!!! Its always good when people think you’re younger than you really are.
