And it should be, it should be
it SHOULD be like that
Because Horton was faithful,
he sat, and he sat.
And he meant what he said,
and he said what he meant,
and they sent him home happy
ONE HUNDRED PERCENT!!!!
For some reason this sprang to mind with what I’m about to share. This was taken Sunday evening looking towards town from the Granger’s Wharf Bridge over Alhambra Creek. The beaver (BEAVER!) came in from the strait and headed upstream. It was sent to me by Brendon A. Chapman, who I don’t believe I ever met. If you turn the sound UP you can hear him say my name while he’s filming it. Because obviously you’d tell Heidi about this. Why wouldn’t you?
Another resident who walks everyday at the Marina, Bill Nichols, said he saw a beaver in a side channel at Granger’s wharf this very morning. And you can just GUESS where we’ll be tonight keeping an eye out. Does this mean our upstream beavers have moved down? I wish they had but I’m not sure. That beaver Brendon watched was coming IN from the strait at an odd hour to be a resident – since our beavers usually start in the creek in the evening and go OUT towards the strait at night to feed…. But who knows, maybe the weird weather on Sunday flushed him out of where ever he was living? And maybe the fact that a beaver was seen this morning is a sign that they’re moving back?
Or maybe it’s another beaver entirely? Looking for a new place to settle down and turn Martinez into a veritable Beaver City! Or maybe it’s an old family member looking to visit the ‘hood where he grew up? Could be? Who knows? The possibilities are endless!
