Liz's Great Escape

Liz the lizard had a day of freedom recently.  Rose went in to check on her and didn't see her in the tank, so she lifted the lid and Liz (who had been clinging to the screen lid) jumped and ran for it.  Rose did not tell us that Liz had escaped that Saturday morning and when we finally discovered it, she was nowhere to be seen.  We picked up Will's room and searched under and in all possible crevices.  I had given up hope and was sad (possibly moreso than Will :-)  and a little freaked out about a lizard being loose in the house.

Sunday afternoon Tom walked in the front door and saw Liz perched on the edge of a pack-n-play that I keep there.  He stood very still and called me over.  Will's net was close by and I grabbed it and caught her easily (almost like she was happy to come home).  She is perfectly fine and content in her tank again.  Whew!!!
