Tadpole Day 1 Surprise!
This was a first time event for us. Grandpa leaves a bucker out under the roof near the front of the house to be able to catch water to water the plants. This time, there were tadpoles swimming on the top! Grandpa could not just pour them outy as they would surely have died. So he saved them in a fish tank and will make a movie each day to see how they do.

No tadpoles were hurt or lost in this adventure

Abby likes beetles
Abby likes beetles, I think.

For some reason, beetles in Florida seem to flip upside down and then wiggle their legs.
This makes Abby freak out a little bit.

There are two common types of land turtles in Florida…
This is a box turtle… and then there are gopher turtles.
If you saw an earlier video when I was five, that turtle was a gopher turtle.
Grandpa put Abby back, and let the turtle go … of course.

Abby ran away… again
Abby ran away.. again. She bolted right past grandpa, to her favorite spot in the backyard… and she kept going. You would think by now, she would have slowed down at least a little bit so she wouldn’t get yanked backwards as she reached the end of the rope (normally)… so I am thinking that whole “short rope elephant” story does not apply to dogs. This is what she looked like after Grandpa caught up to her. Ummmmmm, don’t share this one with Auntie Sam.

This dog is crazy… wait to see what she does after getting washed off.
