Mrs Turtle
Mrs Turtle loves to just hang out and cruise the pond. I see her regularly, she loves bread! Go figure ha ha oh yes and pasta to. Maybe she is Italian???
Florida softshell turtles are almost entirely aquatic, generally only emerging from the water to bask or to lay their eggs.[4] They prefer still waters and can be found in ponds, streams, rivers, lakes and swamps. These turtles are usually shy around humans, but when they feel threatened they will bite with their strong jaws.[2] Like all soft-shells they are very fast in water and on land.[4] In captivity they have been known to live up to 30 years old, although in the wild their lifespans are shorter.
The above was copied from wikepedia I can tell you this Mrs Turtle is NOT SHY!!!! LOL

How to catch a fish in under 50 seconds!
This story is true. Every single word lol my beautiful neice ( she is very beautiful) came to visit (she is from Jersey and only time she ever fished was on my boat in Lake Hopatcong never really caught anything) and we decided to go out back in my wonderful wildlife heaven. She (ok I) put a small piece of hot dog (yep thats what florida fish love) on the line and she casted (her first real cast) low and behold not more then 37 seconds she has a catfish on her hook. She continuing doing this and caught about 6 -7 more in about 10 minutes. She even said this was the best time she ever had fishing. Well this you got to see to believe!!!
Special Painting with Love
This painting was done for my soulmate, my lover , my best friend and husband.
I met him 7 years ago on a silly online poker game and knew we were meant to be together for the rest of our lives. This painting was created in my office in jersey. I went in on a saturday and set up my video cam and proceeded to paint. I took small clips of the painting in each step. I then sent it to my husband via email in serveral emails (i didnt have any other technology then lol ) it was for his birthday!
Please see all my videos on you tube to the right of the blog is a feed if you enjoy them please like!

Cabin in the Woods
This is the cabin in the woods
I was inspired by a Keith Urban song which is very dear to me!
Ali yes he is my Alligator!

The Everglades
The Gator in the Glades
My brother in law loves airboating. He ventures out into the glades almost every weekend. He goes out for fun and he also hunts gators and frogs. I don't care to much for either lol but he does take lots of photo's when he is out there and this happened to be one of them. I decided to make this painting in honor of him. It was a gift that he now treasures , I think lol
Here is the Original pic by my Brother in Law Gary!
