We headed out to Westchester Lagoon to catch a temporary pet. Brian had always caught and kept frogs when he was a kid so we went on a hunt of our own. We had to walk down the bike path a little ways to get to the reeds where the frogs live. Along the way we saw a train,
and picked some wild flowers for our hair
and finally Brian headed into the swamp. He caught a nice fat frog for us to take home. We got him a terrarium, some dirt, a log, a water bowl and bunch of crickets for him to munch. I figure we have about a week until the novelty wears off and then we can return him to the wild.
After Tadpole (Lucy picked his name) was all settled into his vacation home, Lucy and I baked some brownies for fun. She was happy to help me clean up!
