Grown Man X: "I need to turn off the water for the winter."

Sweet Little Old Lady: "OK"

GMX now must put his arm down a hole in the yard and turn the water spigot.

a few minutes later.....

GMX: "I need help!"

SLOL: "What is it?"

GMX: "There are frogs in the hole!!" "Will you get them out?"

SLOL: "You're asking me, a sweet little old lady, to get the frogs out?"

GMX: "Yes!"

SLOL: "Why me?"

GMX: "I'm afraid (I'll kill them with my big grown man hands)."

SLOL....thinks to herself "right"

SLOL gloves up and pulls out a frog

GMX: "I think there are two down there."

SLOL pulls out another frog

GMX puts his arm in the hole to turn off the water: "EEK!! Another one!"

SLOL pulls out 3rd frog...and then #4

GMX can now turn off the water in peace.

GMX and the hole and the super scarey frogs

These pictures were in our local paper today, illustrating an article on volunteerism. The two little girls pictured are in my kindergarten class. I was so excited!
