Why did the turtle cross the road?
I have been told that when you see a turtle crossing the road it is a female heading to lay eggs. They are very particular about the location.
'Saved two BIG snappers this year. One was as big as a monopoly board!
A motorist had stopped and was warning other drivers of the situatiion and I pulled over. I got a strap put of my truck and passed one end to the helpful driver and we put it in front of the turtles head and it snapped it up. As we were slowly dragging it across the road (same direction!) one irate driver tooted his horn and said "Hurry it up". With a wink and a smile I called back that we were hurd'en turtles and it takes time! He shook his head and with a smile gave us a thumbs up.
Lotsa nice folks out there too!
