Turtle

One morning this week, Pickle woke up and decided he wanted to draw a picture of a turtle!  By the end of the day, he had a pet turtle (well, a 24 hr pet turtle).  Farmer J and the boys were driving on some country roads and ran over a turtle!  It's not what you think.  The van drove over the turtle but it wasn't "run over" by the tires.  J stopped the van and they successfully "saved" the turtle.  I'm not sure the turtle would agree with feeling "saved" as he was handled by little boys for the rest of the day... but at least he wasn't road kill or made into Turtle soup.  Mr. Turtle lived on our farm for one day.  Later that night, they took the turtle to a beautiful lake habitat just a few miles from the farm!  Enjoy the pictures!
