John Arthur wasn't afraid to get his shoes muddy to get that elusive shot.

I'm not going to check the immature box, but we were all acting like a bunch of kids, having fun at Wolf Ridge.

I TOLD you that you would be getting your feet wet!

Muddy shoes
I trust that not too much environmental damage was done when the mud on my shoes washed off at the floating bog. They appeared pretty clean, though a little fragrant, after the bog wash. (or is that hog wash?)

Mud
Yes, I still can hear the sound a shoe makes as it is sucked off the foot in the muck. Hearing that, I took an alternate and less muddy route. I know, I'm a wimp.
