Duncan, the concrete Scottish terrier,
Leaned forward from his (?) woody carrier
The ice thinned enough
He(?) hit the wet stuff
And submerged from his (?) snout to his derriere
Although the rest of the main pond is still has a coated in ice, Ice-out,
for our purposes (porpoises) has been defined by Duncan punching through the
ice. That happened today.
There were three contestants that chose today, all guessing different but
proxemic times. We need the best time information available to figure the
winner. I saw Duncan above the ice at 7:30 am, and he(?) had dunked by the
time I passed again at 5:00.
There is a timer attached to Duncan, but I neither feel confident in safely
recovering it right now nor in the accuracy of the timer (it's the cheapest
analog watch I could find, I hope it's not waterproof, but it could be more
so than planned. Therefore, I'd like to try to first rely on crowdsourcing to
figure the winner among the three contestants.
Please let me know if you noticed the pup's presence or absence on the pond
today, and your closest estimation of that time. Maybe there's enough info
to declare a winner, rather than we all having to wait for me to recover the
watch timer.
Thanks, I'll let you all know how it turns out, Jim
