The only ones I see here are the giant slimy ones that I pick up in the middle of the road and send them on their way.
They are kind of flat with a loooong nose. (quite ugly !)

We have lots of retention ponds around here and they pond hop.

Florida Softshell.... be very careful with those. They have a very nasty disposition and their necks are very long. I had one get a hold of my inner thigh when I was a kid and I didn't think she'd ever let go. When she clamped down I swear I saw lightning bolts and stars flash before my eyes.

    Not sure if Charlie is awake but wanted to let him know that I can definitely taste the difference on the double raspberry cream recipe with the miss cream as opposed to with a substitute.

    Really? I may have to mix it again.

    The softshell ones are in the pastures sometimes, when they roam from the Peace Creek overflow, especially when we've had lots of rain and some standing water. Had one under my car about 3 years ago, and it definitely didn't like being moved so I could leave to go to my appointment. He/she didn't pee all over though, when I carefully nudged it with a broom.

    However...every Gopher Tortoise I stop to help in the middle of the road, by picking it up and moving it off the side of the road aways...manages to pee everywhere, including on me! Not a very nice Thank You, IMO. ;)

    I was taught as a kid not to tilt a turtle or they would pee.

    I still can't find one I like, but, then, I realize I am limited since I will only use one or 2 flavors. :laugh:

    Have you tried Cap cup a joe? I have a couple simple recipes that I used it in that I liked and I’m not a big coffee flavor vaper.
