me taking a walk on the water
What's wrong, Becky? Little slippery?!
Get a grip, Becky.
I'm sure people passing by thought we'd done lost our minds. The algae from the water made it slicker than seven eels. We fell more than we stood. And we laughed...a lot!
lone shoe, waiting for its rescue
At one point, Becky lost her balance and a shoe fell out of her hand. It took off quickly through the rushing waters. It took a lot of maneuvers and not-so-expert skills to catch the shoe before it made it too far down the creek.
Wet from the water and sweaty from the sun...We survived!
After the stealth recovery, we decided to take the easy way and just walk along the trail.
The next day, I purchased water socks for the both of us. Next time we won't be so clumsy when we decide to walk the creek!

Terra,
I remember many summer days spent wading through creeks and walking across algae-covered river rocks making for a very tricky journey. I love those bygone day memories as today you couldn't pay me enough to walk in any untreated water. Being adult-minded really stinks sometimes. I'm happy you let your inner child shine through on your little excursion through the woods. :)
This sounds like a fun walk that makes for a great memory.
It sounds fun, but a little scary that you kept losing your balance and shoe. I'm glad you both are ok!
