Wow I’ve actually been in the mud 3 times this month already! While the air has been nice and warm, the mud itself has been pretty cold, almost to the point of numbness. But that hasn’t stopped me from venturing waist deep in the stuff. The spot I’ve been playing in is the lighter shade of… Read More »
Welp. I went back. It seemed deeper this time. I think that is because the more I squish around in it the deeper it gets. Also the thicker it gets, of course. Dragging the thicker stuff up from the bottom thickens the top pretty quickly. I’m really glad for this. It’s quite a workout trying… Read More »
Well today is cloudy and all of about 12°C outside… But it’s not going to stop me from re-visiting yesterday’s deliciously deep mud hole. The next few days are going to be colder and colder so I don’t know if I’ll be able to visit the hole any more this year, and yesterday’s adventure left… Read More »
I followed the creek a bit farther than usual. There’s this one spot where it takes a 90 degree turn and keeps going, and when I went to visit it today, the low water had left me a very nice, very dirty and very deep bank to play in! I spent some time digging out… Read More »
Although it’s a bit late in the season, we are having a nice warm day today. I’m going to try to make it out to the pit one more time. I would really like to follow the creek for a bit and see if there’s a soft bank I can play around in… Surely the… Read More »
As I mush the mud around more, the surface level drops a little below the ground level. This is great for collecting rain, and since it’s a somewhat shaded spot, the water hangs around for a while. After, oh I don’t know, maybe an hour of mushing the pit around, I end up with this… Read More »
I just can’t get enough of this mud hole, folks. No extra water needed, and it’s so smushy and slippery and has this really creamy texture. I just can’t get enough. This is definitely shaping up to be one of the best holes I’ve ever had, if not the best. And I can go there during… Read More »
OK So I went back to my new play spot after 2 weeks away… As I approached the pit my heart skipped a beat or two when I saw how awesome it looked… A little bit of water pooled in the middle, which is great since there is still some less-than-fully saturated bits around the… Read More »
This spot is a little bit downstream from the last one. Better seclusion, since there are several houses in the area. Once school is out I will have to be careful since it’s still pretty close to town… But I’ve been here several times now and it’s been great each time 🙂 So, I dug… Read More »
Another day of wandering around ended up in this great looking place. I checked a spot to see if it was soft but it wasn’t really. A bit more prodding got me a few inches down before I struck a harder layer. It is in a beautiful daytime fun area too! So on a hunch I… Read More »
