Kathy, where in Arizona did you go? I am looking at booking a week near Hivasu Creek \ Grand Canyon this summer. I bought my son a kayak today to start training but I’d like to paddle it and see the waterfalls!!! I’m wondering where I should plan to stay....
Female? It was labeled as a male koi betta... Not that labeling is always reliable... How can you tell? I'm a novice when it comes to fish.
Typical girl...I can't wait. I'll probably do a boy though.Thank you! He has lots of attitude, too! He's just beginning to show some of it...
Hahaha hahahaThis is my placemarker. I'm all caught up until tomorrow! Later all!
Thaanks...I'll buy the testing kits...I don't drink it and my animals get at least purified.Copper may or may not be an issue with your tap water, depending largely on what the pipes are made of between the water source(s) and your house. The required water quality testing for your provider is probably public record... Although anyone looking would likely have to go digging on the U.S. EPA's website or the state counterpart's website to find it.

My fish knowledge is even more limited than yours.I thought that so but doubted myself as the fish knowledge is limited
Thank you! It's definitely an unusual betta fish.Oh how SPECIAL!!! I see plenty of the betta and the koi!!! Luv him!!!
Mine too. I'm going to have to depend on what I read....but...I saw a really cute little guy yesterday. If he's still there tomorrow he needs me.My fish knowledge is even more limited than yours.
Same happens to me.I see them too. Sometimes just 1 or 2 pix out of a series will load, but later on they are there. Really weird!
I hope it went well.Good morning all, after such a long weekend, I keep thinking it's Monday today.
Whatever day you think it is, hope it's a good one.
I have 2 appointments today.
Physio for one leg, GP for the other.
Hopefully the GP will refer me to get the clicky, painful knee sorted out sooner rather than later.
Meanwhile stuff to do, so will see you later.
TTFN
Good luck Ben.Good luck with your appointments Lyn.
School starts tomorrow for me but just a few more months until I finish Secondary school and study Animal management at college. I can’t wait
Somebody else made the box for me and last night it was too dark to take photos. I put the insulation in. Hopefully I will have decent light when i get home today and can take photos. It is not a big box. It is only 600x600x600 and the inner box is 500x500x550. And I stuffed thermo insulation between the two boxes to insulate them. Now I must just figure out how to get an extension cord connected and put in a CHE on the inside.Good morning! I hope your photo logging your progress!!! Cause guess what??) I WANNA SEE!!! [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]
Pictures please.I gave complete faith that you can accomplish this.
I luv the Easter egg too BTW.. I have a small collection of. unique eggs on my entertainment stand. Started them just out of school. have a buddy that always said “eggs” when he meant “love you” [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]... that’s where the first one came from.. it’s blown glass I believe.
Aaahhh I am so jealous. I would love a bearded dragon. [emoji3] Lots of pictures please.I got a phone call last night for a new critter.. Someone in Arkansas has an adult bearded dragon that they can’t keep. Someone thought of me) I am going to go pick it up hopefully this afternoon if I can get off work on time Pics to follow!

Sounds like it was a good weekend. And I am glad that you did not overdo it. Welcome back.Hi everyone!
I hope you all had a good Easter! I ended up in the land of no wifi or mobile signal [emoji849]
It was lovely though.
The New Forest is famous for its ponies roaming wild and free... fences are to keep them out rather than in.

There were quite a lot of donkeys, cows and pigs roaming wild too.
We did a lot of birdwatching and a lot of walking... just slowly... but my leg mostly held up. The weather was amazing, so I did opt to sit and rest while the rest of the family were more active at times.
We went to Beaulieu (pronounced Bewley) - home of Lord Montagu and the national motor museum which currently has a Chitty Chitty Bang Bang exhibition on.

We also went to Hurst Castle - built in the 1500s and pretty much in continuous use until the end of World War II. It’s at the end of a 2 mile shingle promontory and was used to defend Solent estuary between the mainland and the Isle of Wight. One of the UK’s most important ports is Southampton at the top of the estuary.
Rather than walk the 2 miles on shingle with my bad leg, we got the little ferry boat from Keyhaven
The walking route:

They are so cute.When we picked up Daughter we got to meet the Common Pipistrelle bat she and her flat mate are looking after while he recovers from wing injuries

The Pip is about half the weight of...
The Brown Long Eared Bat (who you have seen before) was released last week having made it perfectly clear he was fully recovered and wanted out.

Sometimes that is a good thing.I remember going to that port when I was very young, I vaguely remember being very interested in finding little crustaceans and other aquatic creatures by the water edge....... nothings changed 12 years later
