Catchy Caption of the Day
Actual Caption:
Kids run into the mud pit during the annual Mud Day in Westland, Mich., Tuesday, July 12, 2011. Wayne County mixes more than 200 tons of topsoil and over 20,000 gallons of water to ensure that the mud is just right.
For those of us from Ohio, it does not surprise us to learn that this is what passes for fun in Michigan.
