Once upon a time there was a blue blow up pool. It was loved by all.
But when winter came, the blue blow up pool had to be cleaned and folded and stored. Unbeknownst to the owner, it was a two person job.
The owner, who was only one person, was too proud to ask for assistance so she tried to move the pool by herself. The pool somehow got moved about 6 feet. The owner got totally frustrated, screamed her head off and then left the pool where she had dragged it to.
The poor blue blow up pool stayed there for 2 years. TWO long years.
Meanwhile, the original spot now had a giant circle of nothing. The owner lovingly called it the crop circle and then closed the blind everytime she looked out the window at the pile of pool.
Fast forward to last week. The owner and a dear friend moved the pool out of the second location only to discover the most beautiful site: the most incredible patch of soil crawling with earth worms.
Ding ding ding......the bells went off and the lights went on. YES, now the owner gets why they are called crop circles....it's because people have blue blow up pools in the middle of their fields or yards, they leave them to do their secondary job (which is to make a crop circle). After 2 years, it's like magic: there is a circle of beautiful earth to grow a beautiful crop in.
And you thought you'd have to rent that movie with Mel Gibson to find out how crop circles were formed.
The owner has now since hauled in 9 bags of sheep manure, situated the compost (dear friend did that) and has built a fence to keep out Max and his girlfriends.
The owner (who would like to remain anonymous) will be posting pictures of the progress at the bottom of this blog.

PS. the owner of the crop circle is willing to rent out the BlueBlowUpPoolCropCircleMaker to anyone who is nice and kind and loves to laugh:)
Have a wonderful weekend everyone:)
