R.I.P. Perry

We left on vacation for Big Bear last week.

Unfortunately no one thought to feed Perry the fish before we left.

Even worse, no one though to check on him when we got back on Sunday.

Imagine our surprise tonight when we discovered Perry the fish had kicked the bucket. From the looks of him it wasn't just yesterday...ew!

So there you go, our fish saga has ended for now. Poor Fish! Poor Aaron!

It's not funny, but the whole "kick the bucket" comment made me chuckle!!

May he Rest In Peace in the Great FishBowl.

get a beta..they seem to live forever..usually...unless they live with the Bakers????? Or maybe a puppy. They are much harder to ignore..or a kitten. They are very handy on surviving on their own for a weekend.

our church just doesn't do well with fish. We either kill them ourselves, or let someone else kill them and then we eat them.

I put a male & female beta together in one bowl once.
One ate the other.
The end.

Just one beta..two or more is exciting, but probably more than pg 13. We did a beta experiment in college...it was impressive. We kept them apart with glass and then after a while removed it.

OOOO, admabble!
