Just Turtles, Turtles, Turtles, Turtles.


Yeah, this IS our log ... you wanna' make something of it?



I took so many turtle photos while canoeing the Santa Fe that after the bazillionth turtle photo canoe detour, I announced that ...


... the only way I would take any more turtle photos is if they were standing on their heads.



Lucky for me, they were only standing in line.



Nonchelonian News:
It's Mrs. FC's birthday!
Not the milestone I encountered recently, ... she's still a baby.
This means I'll be baking a poppyseed cake ... her favorite.

My husband always bakes a cake for me on my birthday, too. He's wonderful. I usually ask for spice or carrot or chocolate, but I never thought of poppyseed. MMMmm.

Oh yeah, nice pics, and many happy returns. I got distracted by the cake.

I just had a thought...forget about getting your ducks in a row. Get your turtles in a row!

Thanks to all for the birthday wishes to the better half!

3C and Paint,
Thanks!
I suppose yours are still on ice, but they will come out again.

Wren,
I will, but it will be redundant... I've probably blogged it twice already.
Mothers day and her birthday ...

Laura,
Maybe they heard it was from scratch and they can't believe I can do it.

Dani,
Will do!

Deb,
Thanks!

Robin,
I wish you could have seen how many there were. Turtle city.

Kathy A,
Thanks. They were hard to miss!

Sharon,
Yertle came to mind.

Leslie,
Good for your hub! We have to set the bar high for those husbands who would go out and ... buy ... a cake.

Ol Lurker,
Okay, you must know me.

Swampangel,
I like it! It has a Florida feel!

Happy Birthday to Mrs. FC! Hope you enjoyed the cake. You all have some March birthdays, too, don't you?

R.Powers said...

Cathy S,
March is Emma.
Mrs. FC actually had to go out of town on her birthday (today) so I'm cake bakin' tomorrow.

Hope you enjoyed your cake, Mrs. FC after your trip out of town! We are both Pisces,it seems...mine is the 27th...came close to being a Leap Year baby, which would have been kind of neat especially now when counting so many birthdays!
Loved all the Chelonian Characters this time, FC!
