What is my favorite part of life? Watching turtles at the lake for lunch instead of sitting in a restaurant.

There were two of them, a fairly large one and a tiny one. We threw them a pretzel and they ate it together. At one point, when the large one had succeeded at breaking the pretzel in half after it was thoroughly soaked, he took a piece in his mouth and stuck his head way out of the water and stared at us. Boy, I wish I had a camera with 15x optical zoom.

The sounds at the lake are some of my favorite sounds ever. Splashing fish, arguing geese, huffing and puffing turtles and soaring herons. What else do you need on a Monday? Certainly not your couch and the TV.
