'There you go, little guy,' she said as she drew her hand back from the water and watched the frog swim away. Karen's neck and arms were covered with red welts. Apparently, the organic insect repellent the girl at the outfitter's store recommended wasn't working. Her arms also bore long scratches and superficial cuts from cattails and other swamp grasses she'd encountered. Every step in the black muck released a noxious odor of decay and rot. The rubber waders were chafing her legs below her khaki shorts, and she was beginning to perspire. But she was happy. Every leopard frog she'd found so far had been completely normal, none with two heads or additional appendages. The morning sun reflected the greens of the vegetation and the pink of the sky, reminding her of a necklace she might wear tonight, when she'd be clean and cool again, wearing comfortable clothes, relaxing with the other grad students at the pub. Not finding any abnormal frogs didn't help her research much, but at least she'd have something happy to talk about.
All eyes will be on you when you wear this show-stopping sterling silver necklace. Suspended from its tiny links are marquise-shaped sterling silver ornaments interspersed with topaz, peridot and pink briolette CZs, all of which grow larger as they reach the necklace's center. The piece is crafted from genuine .925 sterling silver, which has been polished for superior, lasting shine.
