Like this turtle.
It was determined to stay put, until we moved it. It hissed and tried to bite, oblivious to the perils of sitting on the yellow line on a Friday afternoon.
Then the other day (on this same road; it's pretty long and narrow), I got stuck because there was a house in the middle of the road.
I know, it's sort of a trailer. But it's someone's idea of a house. This Dutch girl is fascinated. We were late for things both times, but it was well worth the surprise.
The storyteller in me loves this stuff. I imagine someone's having a cup of coffee on that porch right now, watching the turtle cross the road.
Happy Friday, y'all.
Good on ya for recognizing the joy in these little surprises.
ReplyDeleteThere's a herd of deer that live in Palmer Park. Every so often they go for walks in the neighborhood where I work. Just beautiful. And a lot bigger than you'd think.
Sounds cool. But a little scary too, maybe...
ReplyDeleteI thought you lived in Colorado?
ReplyDeleteNo, moved to Mississippi in August for husband's job... We're hoping to leave in a year, maybe two. Not the best place to live.
ReplyDeleteOxford is nice. Also been to Natchez and drove down the Trace. But I wouldn't be keen on living there.
