A turtle on the loose!!!

Earlier today my sister looked out the window, and saw something in the lawn! It looked like a rock, but there had never been a rock there before! I looked out the window, and lo and behold- a turtle. A very large turtle, I might add. We could tell from the shape of it's head that it was a snapping turtle. We went outside to check it out- oh, the exitement! I had never actually seen a snapping turtle before, at least not close enough to actually tell what it was. I sat about two feet away from it, just watching. It was a little freaked out, I suppose I would be too if I were it. I went inside to get the camra, but soon discovered we didn't have film, so I went back outside to study it. I soon remembered my drawing supplies, so I went back in to get them. After about five minutes, I had a nice-looking picture of a snapping turte. I will post it here as soon as possible. The thing about the turtle that impressed me was its long tail- I never realised that snapping turtles had long tails. I immediately paired it up with a dinosaur in my mind. It had razor-sharp scales all the way down the back of its tail. it also has long claws on its stubby toes. It had a sharp hook on the tip of its "beak," too- a very nice-looking specimen indeed. I made sure not to touch it, as turtles can cary bacteria such as salmonella, but also becuase of that sharp "beak!" Soon after I got my picture drawn, the turtle ran away. Well, as fast as a turtle can run- if you even consider it running. Within a few minutes it had hobbled off into the woods. What an encounter! I wish I has gotten photos, but, as I said, we were out of film.

 

The internet connection is down, so I'm posting this from my email program. I don't expect it to actually go through until the connection is back up, but at least it gives me something to do.

 

By the way, check out my other blog- http://dragonsinthebible2.blogspot.com . I updated it just a few minutes ago. I hope you will join me in my quest to find evidence of dragons existing! Well, even if you don't agree, I don't mind. It's just interesting to me, it seems like there are conspiracies on the networks like discovery, I forget exactly where I saw this one, but they had something called "Quest for Dragons," where they were talking about what people think about dragons, making it look like they were actually trying to find them, but then at the end they started talking about how dragons weren't real, even after all that evidence they found. It's kind of funny, when you think about it!

 

Oh, yeah, I almost forgot, it's Friday, June 2, 06, 5:06 PM, 80 degrees, and cloudy outside.

 

Well, that's all I have to say for now, expect me to update soon, but until then, goodnight and God bless you all!
