Taldesta, I'm impressed with the Fisher picture!! I've seen mink and weasels.
I always enjoy the turtle avatar ... is there a story there?Yum!
Thank you. Yes and no...I always enjoy the turtle avatar ... is there a story there?
Nice story! And funny about the crossing signs! (Never seen one here.)
Sally is very child friendly. I hear that kids like to rest their feet on her shell (nice footstool). She is about the size of a sofa cushion and about 1' tall. It amazes me that all she eats is lettuce (vegan diet!) and has that wonderful hard shell. Also, these turtles have a LONG lifespan. (I like the "slow and steady wins the race" aspect--something I can relate to.)
I don't think I'd want to tangle with your snapping turtle--not as docile as Sally.
Taldesta - You can have all that snow. The rare 3"-4" "storm" we have is more than enough for me. I never want to shovel snow again...But I love all the space you have.

I feel the same way as Eisman and snow. I like to see it, but I hate driving in it or being forced to drive in it due to responsibilities/commitments. Taldesta, when that last storm blew through I was thinking of you and what you were probably experiencing. We had some wind, but minimal rain (this happened at night). Thought the neighborhood was spared this weather until I noticed a portion of a tree down the street that broke and had blown into his house. Tis one of the reasons I only want hardwoods in my yard, but they blow over/break too sometimes.
<....> Love this time of the year.
