The snails grow very large, and are actually quite attractive - well, their shells are....
and sometimes there's snails on them. Well, imagine my surprise when I spotted
one of these huge snails in a Rose of Sharon flower this morning .....
Pretty impressive! And so fast too! So much for the statement "at a snail's pace".
I guess I should consider next time I say that, what I'm really saying is "I may not
be not the fastest at what I'm doing, but I am making steady progress".
