Apropos of wading through green, slimy swamps - which I rather enjoy doing - that one in the news at the moment is 18 to 30 inches deep.

In other words, at the edges, it would come just over my wellies, and in the middle, I'd be in up to the top of my thighs.

So, definitely deep enough to get wet, slimy feet in my boots.

But I doubt the National Guard would take too kindly to me larking about in it, so on balance it's one swamp I will not be exploring.

It's national #algae day!

In honor of Sir's perfect #cognitive toolkit and terrific judgment. Nobody knows construction like Sir #TrumpVirus

Why, he's a virtual "reflective pond" of wisdom and accurate self-appraisal.

So, how did our beautiful national treasure end up being destroyed by incompetent, unqualified, no-bid contractors? (Hint: Sir Stable Genius)

Make Algae Great Again!

Algae-marred Reflecting Pool draws tourists, but not for reasons Trump wanted

The water of the Reflecting Pool remained filled with algae, peeling paint as well as white blobs on Friday.

Sinking into a bog like this is a simply amazing feeling. Thrilling, exhilarating, a bit scary, very wet and mucky...

I would strongly recommend having at least some plan of how you're gonna extricate yourself though.

Be #bog safe!

She's chest deep in a bottomless bog; I hope this anime girl gets herself out ok.

I hope this girl is enjoying getting her boots all muddy.
