my 8 year old turtles...

One of my coworkers just got baby turtles that hang out with her as she works. They remind me of my slimy boogers that are so big now, they each inhabit their own 10 gallon tank.

It's just amazing how long i've had them. At one point I had planned to let them loose in a nice lake, especially one that had these types of turtles already flourishing. But now that i've got them in their own little display cases in my computer room... they seem quite content and with their little aquarium pumps going... they're actually pretty low maintenance now.

Here's an old picture when they were still little squirts:
