Mystery Holes


Mystery Holes

            My lovely cottage with the view here has a wide green lawn that slopes gently downhill away from the veranda. There are a few flowering shrubs around the perimeter and a large dildo cactus (true name, for real!) in the middle.  I’ve thought it would be a great spot for a challenging game of croquet so I’ve been keeping an eye out for a set. 

            Throughout the lawn are a series of perfectly round holes the size of a quarter. There are one or two of them every ten square feet.  The curious mind that I possess had me peering down into one of them recently trying to figure out who or what had created it.  I stomped lightly around the hole hoping to rouse out an occupant but to no avail.  There are many small lizards here and land crabs as well and maybe they could be responsible.  Stay tuned as I work on the mystery.
