    I went to a turtle farm in Grand Cayman a couple weeks ago. I got to hold some baby ones. I think I'm in love

    it was hot and rainy and miserable all day, but that turtle was the cutest thing ever and made me smile!

    they had a few different ones, but I think that one was a green sea turtle. It was 6 or 7 months old and absolutely adorable.

    Oh, how cute!
    I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
    Death thought about it.
    CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.

    Now that is a fascinating work plan! Never heard of it, what a great thing for you to do and work towards. I wouldn't want to be the manager who has to hold a job opening for a year, though, that can be awkward. Do you have other folks fill the gap? Hire a temp? Oh boy.

    I've made a firm resolution not to add any more pets either. I'll likely have 1 or 2 of these until I am age 67! And some days, I get down, thinking I am just biding time, waiting for them to die.

    But really, my focus is to give them the best life now, daily, and that helps. I know their pasts, most of them could never have imagined a life like this! I saw your FB post of free (elk? ) bones, now YOUR dogs are definitely living a great life. They teach us, we must live in the present, not worry about the future. Well, that is how I try to think of it; maybe that will help you as well.

    I didn't know you've been to Costa Rica once already. Spending time with sea turtles? Oh my, this is quite a plan you have in place! Good luck with the Spanish!

    Bison bones....it is handy having a wild game butcher for a neighbour! It is a good life; has been and continues to be; just a new phase now! I wouldn't change it for anything. I'd like a do-over on a few days, but for the most part I lead a blessed life!

    We spent 3 weeks in Costa Rica in November 2010. It was a fantastic trip, amazing place, made some new friends that we look forward to seeing again. There are several albums of pics on my Facebook page....I took over 6000 shots over the three weeks! Only uploaded a few hundred!!
