Word...errr Wednesday: The Ocean is Under Our Home

This is where we currently live. During days where we have a high tide, the river overflows towards our home. 

Our house is elevated because when it was built, my mom didn't have enough finances to spend on land filling. Truth be told, I often enjoy watching the sea water around our tiny home. Good thing it only comes  twice or thrice a month.





Happy Word...ummm Wednesday!

      They are indoor potty trained. But the ocean only comes during the high tide. When it's a low tide, they can run around and take a stroll outside.

      Unfortunately not. Our house is on top of big bamboo (because they last longer on salt water) and cemented posts. But that would be nice ^^

    Very cool! Hearing the sounds of the ocean and smelling the ocean breeze. Must be nice! Peanuts, very good job in translating into puppy language for Chooey. :->

    So, if you put up a few sails on your house can you sail on over to play with me? But be careful and don't fall out the window. I wouldn't want a shark to snack on you! BOL!

      Please! No sharks! We're scared of sharks! We only have small fishies with long snouts/ noses that come visit us when the high tides come. And we also have crabs, by the way.

    Wow, that is amazing to have the sea right under the house - do you ever see any fish or crabs?

      Yes we do. But we cannot eat them because they eat garbage and potty stuff. So they aren't... edible.

      Nope, we just live on an On and Off ocean. The downside of it is that whenever there's a high tide, we can't leave the house or we have to wear boots just to reach the road.

    That's pretty amazing. Hope the water stays under your house and never overflows into your house.

    We are not sure we would like that on the high seas experience. Hard to do zoomies...and momma would probably not like the afterwards mud! Peanuts, you sounded like a scholar!

      She does, doesn't she? Like what Nola said.

      Well, we don't have mud because there's grass growing all the time. So no muddy soil... just grass after the high tide resides.

    Wow, that is really cool! I guess if this happens from time to time, it's a good thing that your house is elevated, right?

    That's pretty cool, actually! I'm surprised the dogs don't get a little freaked out by it.

    That is SO strange, but I suppose you are used to it. What about all your stuff outside and cars and stuff?!

    How cool! We love the ocean and listening to the waves at night. Where about do you live (if you don't mind)? Do you have to worry about hurricanes? How high up in the air are you?
