The topic ready for your interpretation: Surf or Turf.

Shay says:

After a grueling round of thought provoking themes, we relax a bit and let hair down, kick up our feet for a fun and light hearted look into a more earthy theme. Surf or Turf, your choice. Everyone has access to one or the other. For some, summer time is in full swing, for others...not so much

After this, we have our second (of four) semifinal round.

The Mystical Adventures of Jimmy the Pig

Jimmy the pig was free, he had run from his evil master and made it to the open fields of grass. What was that noise though? It was so loud and it smelled different. Not the beautiful smell of the forest but the smell of burning. He walked closer to the sound to find out where it was coming from and walked quietly into the thick of the bushes. When he emerged from the other side nothing was as he expected. A white board jutted out in front of him calling to his curiousity. He could see objects he had never witnessed in such grandeur. Buildings were no longer the size of the farm but grew to the sky and people walked everywhere with no grass in sight. He looked to his right and he could see the farmland he had just left but now it was so far away, behind him there were only stairs but not the bushes he had walked through before.
Jimmy sat for a few moments and looked down onto the ground. A young woman was looking into a beautiful stream of water, it was below him! Perhaps if he could get to it he could walk through as he did into this world and leave all of the scary and new noises behind. He put one foot forward, then the other three followed. Each step was an odd clack as he connected with the hard surface below him. He looked out over the abyss at the end and knew it was to far to jump. Suddenly an object floated into view, a yellow object that looked so soft and inviting it had to be there just for this moment! Jimmy leaned back and got ready, he knew he had only one chance to land on his target. And then.....

Okay I may be a doofus but I cant find out how to put the exif in here...
Heres a link to the picture on my smugmug and I turned the info on. Does that work?
