for the longest time, lwj thought that reported sightings of mermaids were just hallucinations or embellished stories—until he briefly leaves his boat to have dinner on shore and returns to find a large, spiny merman on his boat, helping himself to lwj's catch of the day.

@cerbykerby OMG! Smack him with the broom! LZ had truly become inured to the reality of their being mermen! Course, WY is always part gremlin! 😁. Lovely story, thank you for sharing it with us!
