Why the turtle crossed the road..
Actually I have no idea why this turtle was in the middle of the street. He was heading away from the direction of the water, and taking WAY to long to cross a street that I have seen smashed, dead turtles on before. So as the dogs and I come up to this turtle on our walk, I took the plastic bag out of my pocket (that emergency bag that is ususally used for cleaning up after your dog) and scooped up the turtle with it instead. We took him down to our dock and let him go on our 'beach' (read- the square foot of sand that we created next to the water when we were done with our hurricane sandbags). He enjoyed the private beach from inside his shell for a few minutes but as soon as the dogs moved on from turtle sniffing to squirrel chasing, he slowly crawled under the dock and went on his way. And THAT was our adventure for the day. : )

LOL When Ben was little, about four or five, he told this joke... "Why did the turtle cross the road? Because it was the chicken's vacation"
ReplyDeleteAnd he and I would laugh our heads off ... no one else thought it was that funny but watching him tell that joke and being so tickled about it that he could hardly wait to say the punchline, combined with the ridiculousness of the joke....he and I just died laughing.
We've always been that way tho. It's too funny.
:) I love it when a kid has a joke like that! It is too funny to watch them hold it it (at least the first 30 times..)
ReplyDeleteI know, right! He still laughs about it tho and I still can see the five year old in him.
