Went on a trip up to Yvonne’s this past Saturday. It was a 564 miles round trip but well worth it.
I thought I would share photos I took of the trip. So here goes:
Ran into rain around Gorman (California Grapevine)
Once at Yvonne’s the First Shelled one I met was Dudley
Here he is on patrol
What a sweetie he is
Aldabra and Yvonne’s feet Trust me She looks small here
Here she is with Yvonne’s Kitty nose to nose and to think she’s only 9
Asian Mountain Torts Mating
Here he is checking on his lady, what a gentleman
little Emmy’s growing and eating well now
Sideneck in middle of pond
Close up of sideneck
Wonderful pens large and lush
Leopard sunbathing
Now this lady has a beautifully marked shell
One of the boxies still up
Chewy’s sister- This is especially for TerryO
Yvonne’s Mare
this is one of Yvonne’s pretty kitties
All 8 Baby Texas tortoises (gopherus berlandieri)
Yvonne and her lovely bird houses
I had such a wonderful time and Yvonne was a wonderful tour guide and hostess. Her pens were roomy and her sheds well built and clean. All the tortoises and Turtles look healthy and happy. Even the little ones in the infirmary that are healing from one ailment or another. My one regret is that I didn’t take a picture of her “kitty that wasn’t there†Yvonne told me he/she is shy and never comes out to greet or meet people, he hides. Well we were sitting in her living room when this lovely large, yellow eyed Manx cat came in and let me pet it and was playful and quite entertaining. I was so at ease with Yvonne like we had known each other for some time. She helped me mend my Convertible top (Got a few tears) and off I was on the way home.
The route home was through Tehachapi and I ran into fog at the summit
Windmills on the hills of California
Sunny skies over Mohave
My two baby Berlandieri home. August is in the corner and October is on the slate
October Eating
Hope you all enjoyed sharing my trip. I can’t say enough what a great time I had.
Yvonne if you need to add anything please feel free to edit. Yvonne told me each ones names but I am so bad with names and feel bad I can’t tell you the Kitties or Mares names.
