can someone explain this:
a classic movie.
Short story; as short as I can make it...
about 7 years ago per facebook we put in our pool. Sat most of the winter and in spring it of course was nasty water from sitting until we could actually start it up and chemicals and such. Couldn't see more than an inch or two deep.
Walking around it one mid spring day (back when i) smoking and looked at the steps and WTF, a turtle. About the size of a silver dollar, if anyone remembers those. Snapping it turned out after I caught him.
we are about a mile as the crow flies from the Duck river (remember that name, it comes into play in a minute) and at least two miles from any known pond. Where did this little dude come from and ending up in our pool?
We named him Howard because he must have been transported from another universe. Or at least dropped maybe by a bird trying to eat him, from the Duck river....
Hopefully is is growing well at Tims Ford lake, in the deep cove next to the State Park.
