Navy Davy and I went beaching early this morning with limited success . Still a nice drive and conversation. As ND was dropping me off home I informed him I was going swishing at a certain lake which I try big time to avoid during regular hours as it is in a tough neighborhood.....Navy Davy knows which one I'm talking about.
SO WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE DONE?
Get to the fresh water beach and is not really that busy in the water with the life guards off duty. A young fellow about 13 asks me what I'm doing and a few other of the normal questions one gets asked. I politely informed him that it was a metal detector and I was looking for metal. Okay so far. So I start a lateral grid of the water with this young fellow following me soon to be joined by his brother. Okay so far. The brother has a raft with a paddle and stats following closely behind me.
"I have a metal pole under the water so stay back a little please"
No response other then to turn his raft over and swim beneath it. Okay to this point. I try moving away but am stalked....yes by a pair of teenagers when I feel a jab in my back....I look back with the paddle just behind me and say nothing moving away trying to detach myself from the duo. Accident no harm no foul as I reverse my course going towards an older couple with the mother having an infant in her arms.
Hear her call the name Jeff and one of the teenagers pops out from under the raft. By now I'm in front of this lady holding the child when I receive another jab behind my left knee (artificial one) that almost capsizes me.
I turn to the teenager and tell him if it happens again I'll put a hole in his raft...forcefully this was said and the mother just laughed.
At this point I turned to the lady holding the black infant (she was white as was her husband/boyfriend) and asked her politely to tell her two teenagers (black) not to touch me. Again she just looked at me like I had three heads. Basically I am non confrontational and just back off and leave to return another day but the last jab had hurt me and I took my headphones off and said to the "parents,"
"I'm ashamed that my tax dollars are paying for a women like you to bred disrespectfully ignorant children like that. You should be neutered" I said as I looked her and her "boyfriend/husband in the eye! So much for being non judgmental or bias! The husband looked away as did the woman holding the child. I slowly made my way to the shore and left.
On a brighter note I went to gas up Nogo and get the $20 that ND and I had won on the last Lotto Max only to find that we had won $40. Thinking we have a few more chances as this is our 3rd win in a row on the one only time we had gone splits on tickets.
SO AGAIN I ASK WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE DONE?
Once home put some rub on the back of the leg and took a pain pill.......works.
Take for the day was $6.05, a zipper (think I should have used that earlier on my lips) a junker, dolphin dewy, and a spoon that one would most likely use to "cook" something!
