Fred the Runaway Turtle

Posted by Diana on
Well, it was a rather sad tale, but Fred, the box turtle, who had a rather testy personality, did run away -- TWICE!!! The first time he wandered into a neighbor's driveway (a block away -- it must have taken him a week!). When we posted a lost sign, someone told the neighbor and she gladly returned him. The next time he ran away he had a better escape plan and we never saw his mean little face again. We had him for about 3 years, I think. He escaped because we couldn't resist letting him enjoy the outside sunshine. We thought we had him penned in, but he apparently had a decent vertical and managed to jump out.



Bill's new boss (his old one died suddenly a month ago) plays in a rock band. We just went to one of the band's concerts and it was excellent. The new boss is gonna get my vote this November.



Jessica and Noah are fine. They were both working at the mall this Sunday, so after church, Bill and I swung by the mall and saw both of them. It is so satisfying to see them earning money! I bought a blouse on sale at Noah's store, and with his discount, it only cost $10.00! Wow!



Love,

Dee
