    How opportune for me that on my first visit to your delightful site I get to see a turtle! Your photography is stunning, as is the ethos behind it.

    I hope you'll drop by for a peek at my WW contribution:

    Very nice photo. Welcome home! Is that turtle really a regular around the reef? My brother lives in the California desert and has a giant land tortoise stop by his property every year for a few months at a time.

    Thank you all for visiting and for commenting -- and for welcoming us back home from our travels.

    To answer Pete's question about whether this turtle really is a regular around our home ref, the answer is a resounding YES> You can read all about this special turtle in two of our earlier posts:
