After doing pond chores this morning I sat down
to watch some HGTV between ponding and quilting.
There was some show on about a botanical gardens.
They were talking about when the place was built.
They wanted a reflecting pond so they dug a hole
and filled it with water.
Only the water wouldn't stay. It would drain away.
So they happened to have an elephant nearby, at a
zoo. They walked the elephant over and let her wallow
in the mud and dirt and pretty soon she packed down
the stuff so well that the hole has held water ever
since!

Wow, there is a great business, rent-a-ephalump! Ephalumps-R-Us
