Most of you know I snuck down to my sister's house last week....my grandson has never been out of Virginia...so this trip was wonderment to him...the mountains, lakes drag races...lol
Right after we got there I had a drag race with a full dress Harley...I got him off the line and to about 80 mph...then he smiled at me, up shifted...and took off like I wasn't even moving...it was fun...in fact...Matt is me only Black...and he has my bad habits...my sayings and a bunch of stuff other stuff...save the rest for another time...
This is my second favorite chelonia at my sis's house...He's big and white, kinda Oreo actually...and I can't spell it, so I will write it how it sounds...
Fry nops hillary... Argentinian sideneck...
My sister rarely says "no to me", she would literally give me the shirt on her back...when she says no I always know why...last year she had a young Texas tortoise that I wanted so bad after she said no I plotted how to steal him...gonna be easy because I leave in the middle of the night and she's asleep...lol...moving on...this trip she had another that I wanted...suffice it to say I am pretty good at eye problems so I really really wanted this little Manouria...
and in another closed chamber just above the Manouria were 4 of these guys but I guess I didn't try hard here or something...4...
I just love babies...ok, moving on...
My most favorite animal at my sister's house is Dudley, I'm gonna say he's an over 30 year old 125-140 lb Sulcata...an angry, aggressive wild animal who refuses to be tamed. My sister does not have a problem with this as she does not commune with him in any way...me on the other hand, he probably has respect for the Food Goddess lol...while am the Irritant to both Dudley and my sister...haha
so Auntie Evelyn and Matt were off bonding somewhere and I went to take some pictures of Dudley...damn...he's in his hide...so I kinda got on one knee and tried to shove the camera in past the weather strips...but couldn't get a good position...I had a husband who called me fearless, I believe I am just none thinking at the time when I want something...so I lay down flat and kinda closer wiggled closer...in front of a monster in his lair...omg! I have the camera in my outstretched hand but can't push the trigger...oh s**t...I'm fussing fussing when I (oh lordy) hear a GIANT hisssssssss of air..Dudley raises UP in an aggressive jump thing...
omg, by this time I'm laughing so hard and he is getting more mad and more made.. another of those jumpy things...look at those freakin gular!!!
He looks mean because he is mean...when I was here for 2 weeks last year I messed with him constantly, and when he was done...he was DONE! But as the same husband would say...you just gotta push it doncha! Yep I do...so I have been chased by Dudley, and sure he can't go fast as my crippled run..but when you have an animal of this magnificence and stature, I do push it...other wise he's sleeping hahahahaha
