No this is from another terrapin. All those eggs from Marley were bad. They've started hatching! This photo was from 2 hours ago and since two more have started breaking through. I swear this never gets old.

Agreed, never old. One of the most amazing (if not the most amazing) experiences of my life was when I was around 5-6. We were allowed out unsupervised in those days. I hadn't been taught anything about the birds and bees so was completely clueless when I happened upon a gateway into a paddock and in there was a jersey cow giving birth....I watched the whole thing totally transfixed until the calf had stood up....a truly fantastic experience and difficult to explain the wonder at that age :)

I worked on a dairy farm as a kid, and that was the best, seeing the calves born. All the other cows would stand back, silently watching. The calf would be separated from mom after a few days, but they were kept in a pen by the path to the milk house, so mom could always see them when she came in from grazing. All the cows would moo so softly at the new calf. It was adorable. Gave me a great appreciation for cows.

^^Nice! Love my Bonza. That huge juice well is pure luxury for forgetful drippers and squonkers like me. Love that airflow too.

Airflow better than the Lincoln tunnel. That pin is a PIA though. In the little manual, it shows the breakdown as being a solid pin that unscrews from a squonk pin. But that’s not a squonk pin. And the blue screwdriver is too small to take it out with. Luckily I have 5 metric tons of screwdrivers in the garage and found one that works. But it didn’t have to be fussy like that.

I hope this isn’t going to be what we see coming out of China for the future. It seems like all of a sudden people are getting packages returned to sender. Were the return ones all China post or??
I had zero problems with something I ordered direct from Aspire in China.

Placed my order on 20 May and it was delivered today 10 June. Exactly 3 weeks to the day. That is normal for anything I've ever ordered from the Far East. It is always 2-4 weeks for me.

My daughter's initial inspiration for becoming a vegetarian was cows. We never had any or knew anybody that did but we lived very rurally when she was 4 and saw them every day. She would ask me to stop so she could get close and she fell in love with them and loved to pet them. Later when cow was served for dinner she refused it and never gets tired of asking me how I can condone cow killing and eat a burger. I admire the dedication. She is 35 today.

Yeah, I guess he wanted an adjustable pin for fitting on mechs. Forgot about that bit.

@Skunk! --- awesome photo's.
Love the horses, did you all get to do some riding?
More please. ;)
Where are you camping? Sorry if I missed.
Thanks! Those are wild horses. Quite a few of them live up there.
Skunk..Sequoia's?
No... just went up to Mt. Charleston. It is really green thanks to all the rain and snow this year. They lifted the campfire ban for the first year in a decade.

@chanelvaps went to Tahoe and Sequoia in the past couple years. Beautiful places. This is the first of hopefully many camping trips this year.
