When I go on my walks, I come across these steel thingies.  I do NOT like these things!  I stop, and make sure I take wide detour.  My dad laughs, and sez they are just drains for rain water.  He sez the rain goes down these things, down the hill, and alllllll the way to the ocean.

The ocean?  Hah!  No way do rain drops make it all the way to the ocean!  Lookee here:

This picture is from one of the decks at our house.  Dad sez that where you see the sky end is a place called “long beach.”  Long beach!??  How can it be a long beach when you can’t see da ocean???  There’s no way rain drops can make it all the way there!  I think my dad’s joking again.  He can be a jokester, so sometimes I think he sez these things just cuz I’ m a dog!

Well, I don’t think these are rain water thingies!  They look too evil!  I think it’s a trap door to China, where I heard they once actually ate doggies!  Or, a trap door to a den of hyenas.  Or sumthin.  Not gonna walk on these things ever!
