Betty Kratzke finally figured out what was disturbing the flowers near her driveway all summer. She discovered that 44 baby snapping turtles were crawling around her yard trampling her plants.
“The turtles are the cutest little thing,” said the Jamestown, N.D., resident. She also went on to state that she was relieved it wasn’t a muskrat or raccoon wrecking her flowers.
She scooped up the little snappers in a cardboard box and dropped them off at nearby James River.
Good thing she moved them. She wouldn’t think they were so cute as they got bigger!
Summers virtually over and you’re either back to school or back to work now, but I bet you can’t help thinking of what you might do or where you might go for your next holiday. Am I right?
If you are starting to plan your next vacation you might be interested in visit the easytobook.com website. I think this site is great. You can find hotels to book your stay in, in most of the major cities of the world.
For example if you are planning a trip to Spain you might be interested in visiting the Barcelona Hotels page. Perhaps you are going to London to research your family history? Check out the London Hotels listings on Easytobook.com. All of the listings allow you to compare prices, have descriptions of the hotels rooms and services as well as listings for nearby attractions! Oh and you can also see how others who’ve stayed in the hotels on their vacations have rated each hotel as well.
We’re actually thinking of going to New York in the spring so I’m going to bookmark the New York Hotels page. As we get closer to the time of our vacation I’ll visit the site and see if I can find us a nice room at a decent price. I’m pretty sure we’ll find a good deal.

What’s that saying about the dog days of summer?
This dog certainly is having it’s day. Don’t you sometimes feel like doing exactly what this dog is doing when your car is hot, or when you’ve been stuck in traffic and it finally begins to move and you start to get a breeze in the car?
This weeks Theme is Shiny
Last summer we went to Chicago to visit my brother and his family. It was a long drive back and forth and a very short visit. We were there to go to a concert and well visit with family.
During one of the days we were there we drove into downtown Chicago and proceeded to take our own walking tour of the city. This shiny moose was one of the great sculptures that we saw and photographed.
We loved Chicago BTW. It’s very much like Toronto. If you ever get to go to either city you’ll now have an idea of what the other one is like.
