It had become a point of pride for Gretchen, a symbol of her independence. She had started mowing the lawn even before she kicked Les out. Lester had never been around enough to take care of the lawn. He was always at the car lot. You might think that with as many hours as he put in that he would own the place, but he was just a salesman. It was making the deal that he loved. It wasn’t a vocation. He wasn’t solving problems and making people’s lives easier by matching them up with the ideal vehicle. Making a deal in Lester’s terms meant taking as much of their money as possible. So Lester had turned out to be a bad deal for Gretchen and the girls. The neighbors had stared at first when she had dragged the 20 year old Snapper out of the garage wearing her spandex. It was a push mower, not even self-propelled, and she worked up quite a sweat doing battle with the grass. Even now, some of the men still gawked when she bent over to push the mower, displaying impressive cleavage. But she reasoned that it was a good way to stay in shape. She also thought that as soon as the girls were old enough, she’d teach them to mow, so that maybe when they grew up, they wouldn’t have to.

Sea Foam
This is a natural process occurring in especially big seas, where plankton and other small sea organisms are literally pulverised against the rocks of the shoreline, resulting in a very fine protein suspension in the sea which coats the air-bubbles created by the waves to create a stiff froth, just the same way as egg protein coats air bubbles to make meringue, and beer protein coats air bubbles to produce a head of foam in a beer glass. from viv.id.au/blog/20070827.871/sea-foam/
Snapper - Pagrus auratus (Forster, 1801) [more of this species]
Very similar to the Red Seabream (P. major) of the northern pacific. This species occurs south of the tropics. The are slight differences in the bump of the head, otherwise almost identical.
They can be identified by pinkish body with blue spots on the upper part of the body. The bottom most parts of the caudal, anal and ventral fins are white, the rest of those fins are transparent.

We spent the Canada Day weekend in Algonquin, car-camping and doing day-trips. On Friday, we paddled from the outfitter at Opeongo to the campground at Lake of Two Rivers. The route took us through Sproule, Sunday, Little Rock, Pond, and Kearney Lakes before gaining access to Whitefish Lake, Pog Lake, and finally, Lake of Two Rivers. This snapping turtle was sunning on a rock that stuck out a meter above the surface of the water immediately in front of the portage from Little Rock Lake to Pond Lake. For perspective, we estimated the length of the shell to be at least 50 cm. It was completely unintimidated by our presence.
