Instead of our traditional staff meeting yesterday, we had permission to take the hour allocated to go outside, enjoy the weather. Most people take a lap around some pool created by the street drains from the adjacent neighborhood.
While we passing by an exercise station on the trail (you know those ones for joggers to stop and stretch something), Ayako and I spotted this turtle under the sign. It started to struggled forward so we tried to give it a push forward and discovered it was a she. The turtle’s muddy depression had a large hole in it for her to lay eggs. Pretty cool to catch. All the other turtles around the pool jump in the water right away before you can catch any details up close.
