Sea Dragon



The Birch Aquarium is a few miles from our house but we hadn’t been
up there until a few weeks ago when David and I met a friend of
Jake’s wife and her children. When Jake’s mom came to visit a week
later, I suggested we go back there since David liked it so much. One
of the rooms in the aquarium shows fish that blend in perfectly with
their environment and use camouflage not to become prey. I love sea
horses but I had never seen these little creatures before. These sea
dragons must come from the same family as sea horses since their
faces look so similar. I know this isn’t fantastic photography but I
thought the little fish was sort of neat and I haven’t been out
photographing for so long that I snapped a shot of it.

    What, are you kidding! The picture is beautiful! :O I’m so glad you’re back, even though I guess it takes time away from all your other loves to keep updating. Thanks so much for letting us all in!

    Cool picture Karen. I hate to be pedantic and I know you have better english grammar than I have but the sentence “I met a friend of Jake’s wife” had me scratching my head for ages. I couldn’t figure out what you meant since you are Jake’s wife. Then it hit me, what you meant was you met the wife of Jake’s friend. I dont know if you wrote the sentence quickly and switched the order unintentionally or if you constrcuted it that way on purpose. Anyway I’m in the middle of reading “Eats, Shoots and Leaves” so I’m on a grammar rampage!

    loool Tara, pedantic is the best way to be!! That sentence had me going for a while when I read it too but to be honest, I was too lazy to fix it. Promise to be more careful next time šŸ™‚

    i read that book alast year and loved it btw šŸ™‚ she probably would have kicked my ass however.
