My Walk A Jog Adventure





I spent the morning with a crowd of little humans walking to raise money for our school. We stampeded the streets with spirits high - waving hello to friends, and taking in the beautiful sunshine. I even got to stop and chat with some of the students I have met throughout my years at Park School, which was super fun. It always amazes me how quickly those human kids grow and I love that they never forget me no matter how big they get. Could you imagine if I grew as fast and as tall as them? Ha ha! I'd really be able to scare the daylights out of evil-doers then! :) On the other hand, I wouldn't be able to leap from lily pad to lily pad with Phinn and Croak anymore, so I guess it's for the best. 

After our walking journey was over, I got to play at the school carnival. It was so awesome! They had games similar to the games we played at the carnival Lily Pad Hollow threw for us when we came back from our grand adventure. They only difference was that they didn't have fly prizes and instead of candied flies or fly fries, they served some authentic Mexican Food (which all the humans went crazy for). 
Walk A Jog (more like Walk A Fun!)

Oh yeah! I almost forgot to mention the most exciting part! While walking the course at a very swift pace, a giant black panther suddenly crept up behind me. That's right, I said a panther! My heart stopped as I set my sights upon the beast. I quickly reached for my cattail sword to defend myself and the humans around me. Thankfully, I didn't have to use it though because the humans quickly filled me in on how he was a nice panther and was something called a mascot for our school. I trusted those humans, so I mustered up my courage, introduced myself to the big animal and found that they were right! He was really friendly! He told me that his name was Shadow and not to worry because he had no intention of eating me. Phew! He even let me get my picture taken with him. 
Good thing I'm such a brave frog or else I would have found those teeth pretty intimidating.
After a long and exciting day, I'm calling it a night and heading back to Lily Pad Hollow to share all the stories of my Walk A Jog Adventure with Phinn, Croak, and my family. See you on the next adventure!
