I found a tiny turtle on a rock wall by the Hike 'n Bike trail. I took him up to work and cleaned him off with bottled water to make sure he wasn't hurt before releasing him back into the wild. I was sooo tempted to keep him!

As I walked thru the arboretum near the hotel, this little guy came up and said, "Gutentag mensch!" Needless to say I took his picture.
This big turtle is part of the City of Palmdale's float. The turtles are spectacular. The spots on the shell are surrounded by individual twigs and the turtle's legs are covered by giant lily pads.
