The Magic Iguana











So I was simply minding my own business today, floating in the pool, when I spy this iguana making it's way along the electric wire, heading for the street. No big deal, I think to myself, he's heading away from the house. I drag myself from my comfortable floating chair to snap some pics. Feeling good about my luck to finally see a cool looking lizard like this, I make my way back to my most excellent floating chair.

As I gaze back up from my aquatic lazy boy, the damn lizard has vanished. Hmmm, these guys are pretty clumsy...he probably fell. So, again, I get out of the pool for some possible close up pics of the gecko on steroids. After inspecting the garden and bushes (but not too close), I can't find him. Upon settling back into my seat, I see the green monster again. Only this time, he's back on the wire, heading TOWARDS the house. There are some trees near the wire, so evidently, he used a tree branch to get turned around. Pretty tricky, if you ask me. Maybe they aren't so clumsy. As he gets nearer the house (creepily close to the bathroom window...which I have open), he again disappears into a tree. I hope.


You can be sure that I'll be checking the bathroom real well and checking under the bed too.
