Plant a tree

This was a loooong time ago when i was in cub scouts (pre-boy scouts). my troop and i were going around a lake in the park, planting trees around the water. when we got to a muddy area, my troop leader asked me to plant one near the water. i walked over and started digging through the mud to plant my tree. i felt the ground sink slightly beneath me... before i suddenly fell knee deep into the mud, waving my arms around for help. my troop pulled me out, and i just planted my tree in the hole where my leg had sunk in... ahh... good times...
