2012 Baseball Season has begun

Peter had his first baseball game this last week. It was a pretty good start to the season, the weather was sunny and warm, and the Red Sox (that's Pete's team) won.

Grandma and Gramps came too.

I was working out in my garden next to the driveway yesterday and happened to notice this thing sitting there.  He was a little bigger than a quarter.

I brought him back to the stinky pond behind our house. Each year we have a small migration of painted turtles that - by instinct - hatch from their eggs and travel to that specific pond. If you think about it a little, its amazing.  And its yet one more reason to not mow the lawn.
