Crossing

My pal Cathy reports that she came across a huge snapping turtle in the middle of Allerton Road. She pulled over, picked up a big stick and did her valiant best to relocate the creature to the side of the road so he wouldn't be hit. "Took me 15 minutes to try to get him moved. He kept spinning to attack .. Finally, a guy in a truck came by and helped." Good for Cathy!
In other snapper news, I came across this in the classified section of a local paper: "Snapping turtles: need them trapped out of pond in New London area." Wow. And you think YOU have problems!
