What are some of your other interests??

My other interest beside tortoises include fishkeeping (7 tanks with around 375 gallons of water total) and hermit crabs (40 gallon tank with 6 crabs currently) I am also a student in architecture and I love making models and drawings.

So, what are your other interests?

RE: What are some of your other interests??

I am a scrapbooker! I love to scrap with my friends. I do books for each of my children. I have done them for foster children and things as gifts also. I even go away with my "Scrappin' Hotties" once a year to a convention. Way, way fun!

RE: What are some of your other interests??

You mean there is life other than turtles and tortoises?

I love just about any and all animals (and have a zoo household to prove it Big Grin). Love to just sit and watch them. From watching a butterfly dance on the wind as she flirts from flower to flower, or just how majestic a bald eagle is even if just sitting on a dead tree branch over looking his kingdom. The way a dragonfly's wings look so delicate and catches the sunlight never fails to amaze me. The grace and strength as the horse gallop for the pure pleasure of it across their lot.

I love gardening, not so much the planting or weeding. What I love is the after affects. How you can sit on the computer next to the window and the gentle breeze blows in gently tickling your nose with the faint pleasing scent of roses. On a breezy fall day, watching the tall grasses sway like ballerinas dancing. Running your fingers over the herb bed releasing their wonderful aromas. The rosemary bringing back warm memories of the family gathering around the table for the holidays. Or biting into that very first juicy tomato of the summer, while out in the garden.

I love reading books, especially one that makes you think and figure out who done it or makes you cry as you read. Love authors where you become a part of the story, where your carried away to the story's heart. Those books you hate putting down. My problem is that I will usually read that book in just one day and then wish it would go on and tell more.

Aside from my other pets and my kids... I love to take photos of the kids and animals. And I collect Cabbage Patch Kids and used to take a lot of photos of them, too! LOL! My torties take up that time now, though!

Well, I have two horses and Barrel Race. I've won well over $5,000 and about 3 saddles, buckles, tack stuff like that. I've went to the Semi- Finals in Utah and also in Reno too. I love trail riding, working cows and, next year I will be doing High school rodeo. I breed Leopard geckos. I play Volley Ball for school. And I loving fishing!
