My husband wasn’t present when the picture was taken. When I asked him what he thought what was in the cooler, he guessed “roadkill”. He wasn’t totally wrong.

He now lives in the horse trough, but occasionally comes out to play cards.

Turtle was feeling pretty shy so my brother put him in the cooler in an effort to get him to come out of his shell and let my girl get a better look at him.

To those who guessed frog – good guess! Not 10 minutes before snapping the turtle photo (hee), I took this:

Which leads me to wonder, was this a weekend at my parents or the petting zoo?
