COLD DARK ROOM

Aldabraman lives round there I think

Naples is an amazing city. It has a wonderful beach. I got to find my first sanddollar there. The beautiful part was it was a patch of living sanddollars. Inland is even more beautiful. Not taken over with sugarcane...and there's a lot of wildlife sanctuaries. It is primitive though. Walk slowly and watch what you're walking on.

My suggestion is OUTSIDE any flood zones and storm surge zones.

Are you looking at newer construction?

Not really. Not close to neighbors, not “inland”, pool, kind of close to water. Well-lanscaped.

If you live in Florida (not just visit), you have a 100 percent probability of getting hit by a hurricane. It's just a matter of how soon/often and how hard.

Amen to that. I went through four in 2004 in a short few months. I'm still more afraid of tornadoes.

Keep in mind... In Florida, "inland" and "close to water" are not mutually exclusive.

Me too.

My sister froze carrots whole and uncooked. Her pup loved to chew on one of those - helped with sore teething gums. In fact her pup still loves a chew on the occasional carrot.

That's a good idea!!!! Thanks

I love it- a wood stick!. My Newfie drug a 3" diameter and 4' long branch into the house through the doggie door. When a pup wants to chew they chew.

So do bunnies.

All those lovely toys and he wants a piece of wood!
Be careful of splinters - my sisters dog once had an infection from one getting stuck in his mouth.

Good evening/afternoon all.
We've had lots of rain today but the thunderstorms forecast for most of the day with yellow warnings didn't arrive.
I've had a thumping headache all day though and Lola didn't leave his hide at all so I think that the heavy weather may have affected us both.
I hope everyone here has had, or id still having, a good day.

Yes - and we just received the call from the Settlement Company. Deal was signed n sealed.

Congratulations - that's something less to worry about.

Nice sea turtle rescue -

That is brilliant - thank goodness they were there.

Went to visit the local RSPCA reptile centre, I’m going to be volunteering there in September

Good for you Ben!
Great experience for your college course and I'm sure with what you've learned about torts you'll be an asset to them too.

Yes, you can see the poor turtle struggling to help! Wonder how long they can be out of water like that?

We visited Oman a few years ago and one of the little eco-friendly tours we did was to drive to a beach where turtles were known to surface. We saw many AND also collected a bag full of cuttlebones thst were all about the beach.

I didn't have a headache but...it rained on and off all night and parts of the day. Saphire did get to go outside.

That sounds nice! I fell in love with Florida and have went back numerous times over the years... can’t wait to see what your eye-balling!

I hope your head feels better quick and you and Lola are both back on track tomorrow
