About 3 weeks ago, something happened that I want to share with you today. It is almost unbelievable to me how this all worked out in our favor. Some of you know that I have a tortoise. He has been with me for more than 40 years. For the warm season, he lives outside in his enclosure in our backyard. He gets food from the nearby meadow or “hunts” slugs. Also, I don’t need to clean anything in his natural environment. So, he is totally easygoing. But… he has a strong tendency to escape.
