Stil Willin the Turtle

Guess what! Grandpa found a turtle crawling across his front yard and brought it over here! I was REALLY exited. The green five gallon bucket next to the cage in the picture is what he came over in. he was real mad an' he hissed and waved his claws (and boy are those things sharp!) when I tried to feed him a worm.(turtles eat cooked chicken or turkey, raw beef, er worms.)So Landon Lawson and me hauled one of Rissa's old bunny cages up from a dusty corner and made what we thought a turtles home at the lake would be like. He's still alive, so we must not've done too terrible a job.


When the girls and I were at Farmers Market one of us said "I'm still willin' to do that if you what too." Then Larissa said, "that sounds like an odd name."

Stil Willin the Villian, I thought.
"I'm gonna name my turtle that." I suddenly decided.






It's real funny to watch him crawl outta his oversized bathtub. I have a video of it, but I don't know how to post videos on here.





This is how he gets himself outta there.







His belly and sides are beautiful. God's paintings are more than breath taking.

























This is Lawson's newest look.

    1. Have you identified what kind of turtle it is?
      The name you gave him is brilliant! Adding "the Villain" to the name is very clever.
      And Lawson's picture cracks me up. ��

    I did some research and it looks like a Western Painted turtle.
