The guy above is a little snail; I lovingly named him Tiny. Shortly after this picture was taken, my cute little pup--Rufus--tried to eat him. Fortunately for Tiny, I was there to protect him; Rufus and I moved on, leaving Tiny to his, what I'm sure was, much important business. 
  Cinco de Mayo (1862)Cinco de Mayo, the "Fifth of May," is a Mexican holiday that commemorates the Mexican army's unexpected victory over invading French troops at the Battle of Puebla. It is widely observed in Mexico and the US, particularly as a celebration of Mexican culture. However, it is distinct from Mexico's Independence Day, which is held annually on September 16 and commemorates Mexico's independence from Spanish rule in 1810. What became of the French after the Battle of Puebla? More... Discuss |

You saved Tiny!
Don't worry, he'll be eaten by a bigger fish soon. :)
Glad to hear I'm not the only one who respects all living creatures...I'm always being teased as I spend my life "saving" insects and little living creatures - I never swat flies or even mosquitos..:)
Tiny is cute! Can we have some pics of Rufus?
Tiny is probably telling all his shell friends about you tonight.
Btw, the quote is awesome. Let's be happy NOW! :)

Greg would not like this picture. Lol. We get snails all the time and he likes to walk barefoot outside at night, when the little snails are out the most - ewww when he steps on one (doesn't do it on purpose mind you)
What a pretty shell!
And I love that quote. So very true.
Cute snail... living dangerously though!

You are much more patient than I. Not swatting at a mosquito would be very tough for me.
