Swimming through pond weed


You may think it's gross, but ... Frito thinks there are many advantages to having pond weed right in the middle of the pond. First off, that is where the frogs hang out. So if you get tired of trying to pick them off the shoreline, you can just swim right into their resting spots, and you'll be sure to create some action. Now, fortunately, Frito is comparatively slow in the water. But hey, it's great hydrotherapy for the legs.

Oh, and the other good thing? It aerates the pond, and keeps down the "bad" algae by using up the nutrients. Frito is getting his degree in pond management -- he's also aerating the pond by swimming through the weed.
