No I did not find Mich McConnell but...

I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express....
No really, in all seriousness I saw something crawling across my yard. If it had been Mich, I would have said fuck it, but in reality it was a REAL webbed foot turtle. Not sure what to do with it. I am 2 miles inland from the beach, not even sure what species it is. I do know it can't survive in my neighborhood as there is no water for miles. I am taking it in for the night and asking advice in the morning as to where to take it.

Careful. Sessions will arrest it and deport it.

Nah, sessions would only do that if it involves separating mother from children.

Can't get either the "photo" or "image" options to work here..
OH and the only camera I have is my laptop and it only faces me so it is a bitch to aim it at anything.

Mich McConnell part DEUX
Ok, so today, driving down a 1 lane each way road, I noticed a lady walking from a parked car to the middle of the road and sure enough turtle right at the double yellow lines. I had just enough time to stop, right in front of the turtle. But the scared poor thing took the opportunity to take cover under my van. It took a couple minutes and different objects to prod it out from under the van. There was a slight back up of traffic, but the car behind me understood and saw it.
Two things that annoyed me though. An old lady pedestrian said, "Humans are more important than animals" walking by. Yes and no, yes in that you should not cause an accident in trying to save the animal, but it was mid day on a low speed road. But secondly, even if you don't give a shit about the turtle, running over one can cause a tire blow out which can cause an accident.
The other thing that annoyed me, although it was nice of the other lady to try to save the turtle, whom I ended up helping do just that, after we finally got the thing to the side of the road she said, "Thank you, have a blessed day"....... I was polite but simply responded, "I am an atheist".

Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
