The Fish Won’t Hurt You

It’s not something you want to hear when you’re waist deep in lake water. Other than that little announcement over the PA system, it was a fantastic day! Went with Garey & Ellen and Nina & Allen and all five grands and Tony and Christy and their two boys, Tyler and Ethan to a “recreation” lake nearby. Think of it as the poor man’s Emerald Point water park minus the concrete and clear blue water. There’s something to be said for chlorine and concrete. Then there was the little “bump” thingy that kept “bumping” the back of my knee. After about the third time of getting “bumped”, it dawned on me what it was. Then shortly after, someone came over the PA system and said (I swear) “The fish won’t hurt you.” How comforting.
