Slugs

I know I have posted about the slugs and snails on the way to Sofia's school but I felt the slugs at the pool needed mentioning. There are slugs at the pool and they are enormous slugs. Sometimes they are on the edge of the pool or in the pool first thing in the morning. If I see them I just clean them out and throw them in the bushes. Today the slugs were especially friendly. The kids had pizza for lunch and left their crust on the plate. The plates were sitting on our blanket. I hadn't picked up the plates since I thought the kids might come back and eat the rest of the crust. To my surprise not only are the slugs at the pool big they are also very fast movers. I couldn't believe my eyes when I looked down at the plate to see a slug on the crust! I had no idea slugs like pizza too. (This one was the shorter slugs of the pool variety but still fat. It must be all the pizza he eats.)
