Check out this behemoth! Alli and Ruby were thrilled to feel him wriggling around in their dirty little hands. The girls played with him for a few minutes, and then we watched him dig a hole and disappear into the rich, moist soil.
This was the biggest worm I have ever dug out of a garden. He would have won a blue ribbon at the county fair... if "biggest slimy worm" was a category.
Does Cook County (a.k.a. Chicago) have a fair? If so, I would like to go. I bet it wouldn't be like the county fair where I grew up.
Post edit: Let me clarify, I did not grow up at a county fair. I grew up in Portage County. And there is a fair for the county. We went almost every year, but I was not raised there.
Much better.

Wow, that is some worm. I can't imagine anything more fun as a little girl than playing in the dirt and finding worms! Awesome!
Mike thinks that is an awesome worm, a great playmate. I, on the other hand, think worms are gross. We've found some big ones in our garden yesterday. Gross!
