Wendell Zetterberg, Jr. left a comment for Abigail King (Frost-King)"What a hilarious story! Poor thing, I know how it feels. Sometimes those green frogs wait until you are right over them before they jump off, really gets the heart pumping. LOL If its a small duckling, be careful, I have read of large bullfrogs…"

Abigail King (Frost-King) said… - Cutest Frog Story ~
I took my Mexican Mallard Duck I have been mothering down to the Maumee for a swim and some "live food". He was swimming in a small inlet and started going toward some tadpoles in the shallow area. He swims over to the tadpoles for a feast and a big green frog jumps out and scared him to death! He began peeping really loud and swimming hard for the shore....VERY FUNNY!

Carrie said… - I will send it out to you again. We are having a smaller family festival on June 26 - 27 in Medaryville, IN. 2 days of camping, 13 bands, vendors, kids area and demonstrators. We are expecting 400 - 500 people. This is going to be an annual event and will grow in time. We originally planned it to be a dry run for September. We are expecting 7,000 - 10,000 people then. If you send me your email I will send you the information on both. If June sounds like something you would like to attend please let me know. I would love to meet you before September. Also, the more people we have come in June the better we will be prepared in September. You can also contact me at calicokahlia68@yahoo.com I look forward to hearing from you.
Have a great weekend

- I am in NWI, we live about 10 minutes from The Dunes National Park. I take my son there for classes they have in the fall and spring. They have a lot of neat things they do with birds but I have yet to see something with frogs. How would we go about getting you up here for a weekend thing on frogs? I have a connection that works there. He is the D.O.C supervisor for The Dunes. We are from www.Threeheadscompany.com. We are working with A Greener Indiana trying to educate and entertain all at one time. We are having an Earth Day show on April 18th. We are hosting a festival the last weekend in June in Morocco, IN. We would love to have you involved! We want to reach out to the youth and show them a better, different way of life. Please check us out and let me know what I can do on my end to extend your program to NWI. Thank You, Carrie
