Draining of the Virginia Tech Duck Pond

Wow. Looks like it was good little Gwyn and I visited the Virginia Tech Duck Pond when we did. Today, the Duck Pond started getting drained as part of the state investigation of the Virginia Tech shooting. This news may explain why I spotted a Virginia State Underwater Search and Rescue Team truck on 460 today.

Anyway, I don’t know what they are hoping to find, but I bet they come across a lot of disgusting surprises in there. My sophomore year of college I was feeding the ducks when my class ring fell into the water. I had to get in and actually submerge my head underwater to retrieve it. The next week…. I got mono. Coincidence? Perhaps. But I bet the various organisms in that water didn’t help my immune system! 🙂
Virginia Tech Duck Pond…with water
After the investigation, the school is going to do some repairs to the pond. It could remain drained for several weeks. You know what that means? I’m going to be under an awful lot of pressure to actually finish the bread I buy. 😉
