I'll have to wander over to the Fenway, see if I can find th turtles here.

Nice. Very cool pics.

We saw a HILARIOUS Bob-Can't-Love-It enough movie-HOT FUZZ. It's a funny black comedy that is like if you take Agatha Christie,Dirty Harry and Monty Python-all set in a quaint English village. It's very gory in a few spots but it's also from the guys who made SHAUN OF THE DEAD. All the good films are coming from overseas...

I really have to figure more ways to get people to see my blog. Mostly it's been dead.Maybe they don't like the artwork? There's no theme, or anything anymore. I just paint, post or lacking a painting, post something cool like a drawing or photo.

Thanks for the link! You do inspire a love for this earth with all your gorgeous nature photos.

Hee! They're so cute! And I have felt just the same way for the last week. It's all I can do not to just sit on my balcony blowing bubbles in the sun but actually go indoors and produce things.

Where are the turtles during the winter?

Hi all. Thanks for stopping by. I'm all out straight here this week, so this turtle pic may be tops for awhile. So much for lazing around and basking in the sun!

I don't know where turtles go in the winter! Inside their shells? Hibernate in the mud?

[Lorianne]

Yes, they hibernate in the mud, which might explain why they'd take advantage of the first warm, sunny day to work on their tan. :-)

With the recent weather we've had, I could relate. :-)
