traditionalguy said...: It may be a decoy.

Why do they want us at the Lake all night?; 8/15/11, 9:58 PM
traditionalguy said...: Who got a triple play? Those are rare.

We can't watch exciting Baseball while we are stuck out here at the Lake all night.; 8/15/11, 10:01 PM

Wince said...: Those ducks seem to have an aversion to water, which I assume makes them odd ducks.; 8/15/11, 10:16 PM
edutcher said...: The only way I'm gonna hang out there is if there are real topless women and not just breast pillows.

PS Another nice pic, Madame (you do get these lake views evocatively right), but you need a microscope to see the ducks, so Carol's question is to the point.; 8/15/11, 10:30 PM
Patrick said...: Missed the triple. Donation! Brewers are on fire. Packers and Brewers winning it all in the same year? It could happen.

IsMeade on the bandwagon yet?; 8/15/11, 10:34 PM

traditionalguy said...: I found the Brewer's triple play on ESPN.

First one I ever saw like that. It was a 4,6,3 double play followed by an over aggressive base runner gunned down at the plate by the first baseman.

Sharp glove work, and it was exciting to watch that throw by Prince Fielder.; 8/15/11, 10:41 PM
Irene said...: Poppy asks, "Should I duck?"; 8/15/11, 10:47 PM
Carol_Herman said...: I thought they were leaves!

It's like in Huckleberry Finn, when Jim keeps hiding the raft.

Ducks, after all. They are actually there. But well camouflaged. Perhaps, just for the shade though. They're also still all standing on one leg a piece.

Thanks for pointing this out. I actually enlarged the picture to see them. Definitely at the Duck Lake Cafe ...

Bet it looks different in the winter.; 8/15/11, 11:26 PM

Sherlock wants to know when Poppy can come out and play.
