Turtle along side of road near yellow trail, May 2023. There seemed to be large numbers of ants going in and out from this turtle. Might it have shuffled off its mortal coil shortly before getting its picture taken?
Two dead trees along Parker Preserve white trail, May 2023.
Old man too lazy to even try to hide his indolence, south observation tower, Parker Preserve, May 2023. It's funny -- while some folks spend their whole lives searching in vain for a Sasquatch, Bigfoot and its mate dog my every step.
