Hi, Ewa!Morning Kids!!!! I see that Adam is back (awesome!) and we have quite a few more members visit the CDR;fantastic!)
Tried to just random scan through this thread going back but since there's no way I can catch up, I'll just crush one of my favorite threads
I saw Ed talking earlier about skipping one of his RF babies into my suitcase. That made me laugh so hard! Now that I've got the hang of keeping the tort baby adding another is not out of question. What can I tell you? I love them! The only problem for me would be dealing with growing family. I don't think I'd be ever able to let go of those little babies...
About "me and moi", in Florida now for few weeks, at my Mom's with the kiddos (all 6 of them! 3 of the Homo sapiens species, 1 feline and 2 Chelonian), been here for almost 2 wks now, everyone is doing great and guess what? I may get to meet Ed and his RFs!!! In person!!!!
Just in case some of you cringe at the thought of traveling with torts, I'll make a whole thread about it. It was all very well thought through, and prepared to the finest detail. They are loving it here! The only think I did wrong was forgetting my gun thermometer, not that I was worried about temps being too low. On contrary! Was worried about them getting to high! So I had to buy another one (30bucks!!! Darn it!!!)
Other than that, my Mom had everything ready for us upon the arrival including night time indoor enclosure, daytime outdoor tort garden, tons of all kinds of great food for them (I just brought box of Mazuri and couple other favorites to add to the fresh) and now just replacing some of the taller shade plants in there. Got some nice organic hibiscus at wildlife sanctuary and some others lower growing plants.
It's great to see you Guys! I'll have little more time now for the remainder of this vacation and so looking forward to visiting with all of you
Happy birthday!
Hope you saw all the posts a few pages back wishing you the best of days from various Roommates.
So exciting to hear you may be meeting up with Ed.
Look forward to your thread on travelling with torts, particularly the chapter on hang-gliding which is next up for me and Tidgy.
Hopefully speak more very, very soon.

Just lost a few playing sock tennis on the terrace with Tidgy.
She won, she has a great backhand slice.
Not sure you'd wanna go too near John's feet.We'll take the other sock off !
Still extremely scorchio on the terrace.
The tile temp was 60.8°C or 141.5 F
Most of the socks that weren't batted into the distance are severely scorched.
New socks, please!

The kids had a blast. And it was fun watching them have fun even though it was 99 degrees F with a heat index of 107

Actually, this is sensationalist reporting.

But that doesn't sound a s good.

Good day at Wimbledon (via the airwaves) for me...
Wins for Federer...
And in the Mixed Doubles, Jamie Murray/Martina Hingis and Henri Kontinen/Heather Watson.
This means a Brit will we win the Mixed Doubles, but which one? And who do I support?

lmbo No I have not got caught up on the CDR thread, be doing it as we go. The "traveling tort" thread is coming soon, it will be illustrated. At first I didn't think I'd share as to not encourage too many young keepers to emulate. Most of the folks are not ocd like i am about my pets and there were many potentials for disaster on the way and now, as well. I just take full advantage of my funny brain to work for my animals' benefit. Had really no choice, leaving for 6 wks for Florida and noone there to trust with the tortoises, who are still very young and still need daily work and attention. We were bringing our kitty boy Maxi anyway, so what's another couple of critters? I just decided to take my chances and so far- so wonderful! And Adam, hang- gliding??? I'd totally do that!!!! If i could ever overcome my fear of heights Unfortunately I have acquired couple of crazy phobias over those 51 yrs of my earthly existence. Not too bad! Nothing incapacitating or anything. But! Few days ago we went snorkeling with kids (Florida Keys coral reef) and oh man! Oh man! I could not rip that mask off my face and tube out of my mouth fast enough! That feeling of "impending doom" can be pretty powerful and overwhelming, making you forget all the rational and logical thinking and reasoning. It took the power of my entire being to look for the way to swim against the current back towards the boat line, and trying to take few breaths through my mouth while doing that. Once i grabbed the line, I my critical thinking was coming back and i was trying to figure out how to get to the ladder to get back aboard. Now, I should mention that everyone in my family swims very well. Everyone except for moi! I can not swim! I know! Crazy! I would have never put myself into the "situation" but my daughter (good swimmer) was scared to jump in and I guess I felt daring, telling myself that at my age there are still way too many things I haven't experienced and to try and hurry up getting some of those under my belt so to speak... and I wanted to lead my baby girl by example... so I jumped! And she followed! Only I was back out of water in probably less than 10 min all shaken up inside, and she ended up having a great experience overcoming her fear and anxiety. Funny thing though, no one aboard knew how panicked I was, they just thought I didn't like the barracuda down there (there was a big one, looked like 5-6' from little distance). Anyway, Adam, it's good to be alive and 51! Will be down here at Mom's till mid August. Now trying to plan for the Twins' 10th birthday. It's on 8/1/17. Those boys are very tough to entertain. They like their computers the best. They also love animals though so maybe i can find something where they get to handle some cool animals (any animals really, they love them all). Hang-gliding..... hm......
