Weekly Photo Challenge: Friendship

Here we are, two Muddy Buddy buddies in 2008, after crossing the finish line/mud pit. I’m the muddy Muddy Buddy buddy.

The best part of the whole Muddy Buddy experience was when Shelly (with sunglasses) got this photo from the photographer and wondered “who that was standing next to her.” True story.

Just this week, someone asked us if we were sisters. I don’t think we really look alike, do you? Although, in this photo, we are dressed alike. Underneath all that mud on me is a pink shirt just like Shelly’s. True story.

Squirrel Snacks

I heard a crunching noise yesterday as I came out of my office building for my morning walk around the Texas Capitol. I looked around, couldn’t see the source. Then I looked down. Oh . . .

Squirrel chewing on the base of a flag pole

Yummy flag pole!

Yes, indeed. The squirrel was gnawing at the base of the flag pole. Both flag pole bases have squirrel scars (and holes).

Another flag pole base with a hole in it, that the squirrel chewed

Two flag pole bases are better than one!

I’m thinking that this guy must have had a squirrel problem, all those years ago.
