Today's task was to act like a secret agent. We had a family day today because we had out of town guests and we went to a park that has a lake for swimming in. I did my agent work there. I laid out and wrote spy notes in a little notebook like a real spy. Here's what I got:
-overweight woman in floral bikini (too small). tramp stamp, also floral. approaches husband (assumed) on beach. says "you get in thur with them hellions." he replies "why?" as he chuckles, she says 'there's four of 'em en some wanna go off the divin board" they all go into the water. the husband is skinny with some upper arm tattoos.
-woman, in her early forties or late thirties, seems almost sophisticated (which is a surprise at this lake), has two towels one with fish and one with golf clubs, both are thin and faded. she is wearing a big tshirt over her suit. she calmly gets money out of her orange tote and goes to the snack bar.
-couple, skinny guy with a tattoo (something medieval looking, like a cross who's ends get bigger) and a goatee and adidas sandals. woman very heavy, bad hair dye- almost purple. they have an umbrella in a mound of sand patted meticulously flat.
-two teenage (or almost) girls. one thin, one not. thin has shoulder length brown hair and a striped teal bikini. she leans back on her arms like she's the shit. fat one in a brown skirted tankini, lays down, blonde hair, ankle bracelet.
-very extremely tan man, not fake tan, like leather, like indian, burnt sienna. brown hair, black suit, saggy all over. No visible tan lines. is this is natural color? I have never seen anyone like this.
-skinny striped girl turns over
-fat and thin couple get up to talk to people on the other side of the beach
-saggy brown man gets a cup from behind a chair
-sophisticated woman has not returned
-family with hellions still swimming
so that was my spying. after that I had to get in the water and we didnt stay much longer. I wasnt much of a spy after that point. But I think I accomplished today because that was definitely spy work.
i'm curious to see what betty did.

I totally didn't even think about taking spy notes! I used to do that all the time when I was little too. Mostly because of Harriet the Spy. :) But that was a really good idea. I like your notes a lot. What the heck is a hellion? My favorite part is when you said at the end, "family with hellions still swimming." What's with the s-bombs lately?
a hellion is a very country word for a naughty little kid. it's prounounced hell-yun.
