What We Did for Thanksgiving

[create_destiny]

This eight-mile round-trip hike kicks my ass every time. Today was no exception. I'm thankful to be alive and in one piece.

I have yet to make that trip. Bug and I started to once (well, we were s'posed to be working, soliciting ads for The Beak, so we were dressed nice and somehow ended up on a muddy trail....that's just how we be!) But, oh, I don't know, a couple hundred yards into the trail a 6"-8" banana slug crossed our path. Slowly. But Bug is deathly, gaggingly afraid of slugs period, let alone one that's big enough to do some damage. So, yeah, we didn't make it far :)

a slug nearly killed me on that hike, when I stepped on it while going down a steep part of the trail.

slugs are suprisingly slippery.

Ew. Ew .Ew. Ew. Ew.
I'm not surprised, they leave a trail of slime after all :)


And if Bug reads this slug thread, she may well vomit!

many years ago when I lived in a crappy little house here in Chico, I got up in the middle of the night for some reason, walked into my kitchen and stepped on a giant slug that somehow was crawling across the kitchen floor. Barefoot.

They are squishy.
