sit in the sand and turn the tide

Lukina eagerly scrambled after Bog, eager to help out. She wasn't the best digger but she did have big paws that could readily scoop earth and she wasn't afraid to get dirty. She padded over to the area of loose earth and listened as Bog explained the rough depth and measured one of his legs up to hers. She nodded. "Ok, will do!" Lukina dove into her job with gusto, her white paws quickly digging through the dirt and leaves. She delighted in sending the mud and muck into the air and out of the hole. As she got the hole to a point where she thought it might be deep enough she stuck a leg in to gauge the depth. Yep, that seemed pretty close.

At that point Bog returned and mentioned trying to catch some cat fish. "Yea, I'd like to help and I'd just like to see one of those fish try to get my toes." She held up a paw and released her cat claws with a grin.
