    I love being a hero...

    It may not matter to everyone else, but it matters to the one you save. (What's the real quote and by who?)

    I was out and about tonight and was in a parking lot near one of the busiest roads in the city and there was this little toad (would have fit on a quarter comfortably.) Hop hop hop. Was eventually able to scoop him up. I crossed all five lanes of traffic to take him over in put him in a small green area (long ago before I was born a river ran right through there. It was filled in though and the city was built over it. Until recently one side of the road partially remained a marshland. It now is only wet in the spring.)

    Sorry that I don't have a pic for everyone. Had nothing to take a pic with and I was more concerned about making sure neither it nor i got squished.)

    Figured i'd post here at PT since someone might like to hear this.

    Please, if your dog is arthritic look into getting it Elk Velvet Antler. Look up my posts on it, PM me, or look it up on a search engine; but please if you love your dog and want it to live many more years consider this option. I've seen so many posts on here about dogs needlessly suffering. I can't make a new post about EVA every time so this plea is going here. EVA also helps with other ailments such as anemia.
