Here is the evidence of those rascally polliwogs. We had left about six inches of water in the pool over the winter so that the pool wouldn't blow away during storms. Well the storms whipped around so much that Grandpa couldn't keep the cover on and then finally it just split and broke. By the end of the winter season the pool was almost all the way full again and we had become a rest stop for frogs to lay their eggs. The whole pool was just swimming with them. WE HAD TO DO SOMETHING!!!

Boy do those pictures bring back memories. My brothers used to go to a place called Kerby's pond and catch pollywogs and bring them home and put them in our cows trough!! It would make my Dad soooo mad :) Those were the days, but I loved watching them change from pollywog to frog.
In my memory mom would put our pollywogs into a big gallon glass jar and set them on the TV in the living room. We would watch them by the hour, especially when they started growing legs. A live growing science project.
