I was floating in a tube one time in Percy Priest Lake and a MINK (a GOSH DANG MINK) came out of the trees and down to the rocks by the little cove I was floating in. At that moment, I wasn't sure what kind of animal it was, but he looked at me for a second with his shiny eyes, big otter nose and long ferret-like body and the BLOOPED right in to the lake. It was simultaneously shocking and magical. He swam under my float, surfaced, back-paddled for a second, looked me in the eyes again, and then BLOOPED back under and out fo the water to the rock he came from, shaking out his shiny walnut fur. He was my sharp-toothed, catfish wrestling spirit animal, and I loved him.
