So here we are, out of the yellow number
and into a black PVC holter neck with patent black thigh
boots. But once again finding it difficult not to sink. |
Nearly over the tops of my boots again.
Because these are a tighter fit than the waders,
the preasure of the mud on my legs is different but non
the less presurable. |

It may look like I had my eyes shut on
this one but the fact is the sun was straight in my face.
How ever you are probably not looking at my face but my
thighs as they slowly sink into the mud. |
One thing I would like to point out, and
that is, my legs are not tucked underneath me. Nor is
this a manufactured sinking hole like some do but it is
real quicksand. I think that if you are going to do some
thing make it as authentic as you can, and believe me it
does not come more real than this. |

This pic was taken a fraction of a second
after the previous one. I was trying to hold the pose
when the mud behind me just gave way swallowing my
supporting arm, hence the look of surprise. |
Time to try and pull my self out of this.
I wish I had audio tape at this point because the noises
the mud makes as you try and pull yourself out against
the suction of the mud is out of this world. |

Some times you have to lift your self out
part way, then twist around and try to crawl out. |
Failing all else you have to push your
hand into the mud grab hold of your leg and pull for all
your worth. |

OK so I only have one booted leg out,
time for a breather, I think I have earned it........... |
