The River Grabbed My Vickie

Well, this is probably the last profile picture of me, taken by My Vickies new camera, that you are likely to see.
 On our walk today we found a beautiful pumpkin patch, this is probably the last pumpkin picture you will ever see taken by My Vickies new camera.
 The fall leaves have just barely started to change, down in the valley, and this is probably the last fall picture you will see taken by My Vickies new camera.
 Murphy joined us for our walk....This is probably the last picture you will see of Murhpy taken by My Vickies NEW camera.
 Probably the last picture of plants and berries taken by My Vickies New Camera.....
And the last picture of ME swimming in my favorite swimming hole, taken by My Vickie with the NEW Camera.

Why you ask?  Because As we made our way down across the water covered rocks to our favorite play area in the middle of the river, the waters jumped up and grabbed My Vickie's ankle and dragged her into the water.  (OK, she slipped) and down she went, NEW camera and all. 

Oh yes, she tried to save her camera as she was balancing sideways with water flowing over half her body, one leg trapped under a fallen tree branch.  Yes, the first thing she asked her friend Paulette to do was "Grab the Camera".

Did you know how cold river water is in the fall......My Vickie said for humans, it is VERY COLD.

Big baby.

Oh well, she didn't like the NEW camera that much anyway.

Have a nice Friday everyone

Love
Bert
