This is our big male enjoying the Florida weather. It is in the 80's today and sunny. This is why I live in Florida and my torts appreciate it!

OK, I officially hate most of you on the forum!

It is not going to be over 32 for the extended forecast, and getting down to 9 many nights. There is some snow on the ground, not much thankfully, and more forecast later this week. heavy coats, hats and gloves, extra blankets at night, cars that barely start in the mornings. Dang.

Every winter I ask myself why the HECK I keep tortoises in Nebraska! I like pet rats too, why the BEJEEBERS am I keeping animals that cost as much as tortoises do to buy and house/heat over the winter, and take as much room as they do when rats would be SO much easier.

The two thoughts that most often come from that line of thinking are:
1.) Its a sickness. I love my torts! and
2.) Torts, nothing. Why the BLUE BLAZES am *I* living in Nebraska???

(Sorry for the rough language!)

Ha, awesome picture! Coagi's coloration looks a bit like "Mr. Hot tub" you've got pictured above... I know you found him roaming around outside, but just maybe...
