Yay, hiker! My husband (my Joe) is your kindred spirit. I've been in the car when he screeches to a halt because a turtle is crossing the road. He gets out and takes the turtle across in the direction it was going.
I shall look ever so grand wearing my crown as I scrub the floor on hands and knees. Today is the day of the week I pretend to be Cinderella and do the intense cleaning stuff on the floors etc. The frog was very happy to be released. Over the summer I left a plastic shoe box outside on the back porch and forgot it, well when I remembered it and went to empty it there were polliwogs in it so of course I couldn't throw it out. Over the summer and early fall I enjoyed watching those things grow.I am a sucker for animals don't get me wrong tho, I have hunted for my dinner and will again but G-d gave us dominion over the animals Gen 1:26 and I believe it means they are here to serve us but it also means we are to care for them and treat them with compassion. Any way that's my today Thanks to all my brothers and sisters in arms The bio and the chosen)who,served and are still serving where ever you are Big hug to my nephew Blake a Lt(jg) in the USN who flies Helicopters the SH-60B
Eva doesn't every one do that? BG came home one night yelling frantically come help!! It turns out there were 30 or so very new to this world turtles crossing a street to the lake and we sat and watched and made sure none got hit as we stayed up till 2AM!! I can't tell you the # of times we have done just such a thing including on the 1/2 mile walk back to the house from the bus stop with all 6 girls moving every single (and there were hundreds) orange newt from the roadway!Sounds silly I know but they are all great kids because we encouraged their compassion for everything.
Don't forget to pat your award fly! All good frogs like flies! ;-) 'Wog and are are western gals--Colorado and the CA coast. Well, after I graduated from college in '92, we took a 'Grand Tour' of the US and, as we were driving through beautiful Arkansas (minus the Clintons) to Memphis, 'Wog commented on how remarkable it was that they had so many perfectly round rocks on the sides of the freeways... Some of them were rather large, so she said she didn't want to drive over them and damage her rims...
I said try not to damage the turtles, too...LOL!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! We have a good time together...LOL!
Eva, I won the buzzard count, too, from Denver to Assateague Is. (87) 'Wog said she didn't know they had bald eagles in the midwest....!!!! LOL! (I told her to fall over and pretend to be road kill and she could sing the 'Star-Spangled Banner' to 'em personally.... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAA!)
There are also wild ponies along the AT in NC and VA up on the Balds! Balds are tops of mountains that don't have trees. It's pretty neat I've seen 4 of the wild pony herds on the East coast.

ReplyDeleteI'm sure he'd do the same for frogs!

I love that story!!!!!!! No wonder you two laugh so much.

ReplyDeleteFroggy, the buzzard count wasn't fair. I had to drive. I couldn't look at buzzards. AND I didn't run over any turtles.
ReplyDeleteAnyone who hasn't been to Assateague needs to go at least once to see the wild ponies.

ReplyDeleteYeah, at least 'Wog knows what a horse looks like...! (snicker)
ReplyDeleteI'm still laughing!
