The Flies Ate It

So, I think it was Thursday last week. We were all in the backyard playing and having a generally good time while we waited for the clock to finish up getting to 5:30 so we could go to baseball. I was more cleaning up then playing, sort of walking around with bag in hand picking up various garbage and dog droppings. With Sysco being about 15 now he sometimes just drops them where he wants to, which is often on the sidewalk. I had picked up one pile and then noticed a larger pile with flies all over it on the pathway, so I scooped it all up & dropped it on the bag. I continued to walk around and circled back to drop the bag of stuff in the garbage. While I was walking to the back gate for the garbage can, Marina stuck her head out of the play house and said "Mom, that was so nasty!" "What was nasty?" I ask, curious. She says "There was this big pile of poop with like a hundred flies all over it!" I said "I know" Marina continued "Yeah, well the flies must have been hungry because it's gone! The flies Ate It!"

Nasty, Hungry Flies!
