While out for a drive in western Scotts Bluff County on June 28, 2022, I assisted an Ornate Box turtle across the road. These turtles are well-known across the Great Plains and are protected in Nebraska.
I hope you enjoy this silly picture of me and a turtle as a light-hearted post to distract us all for a moment from the news of the world right now. It did move pretty quickly for a turtle, so I’m sure it would have been okay without me, but I decided to make sure it got to safety anyway.

Y’know, it looks like that turtle is running away from you. The options for balloon quotes are unlimited: Let me go! Help!

Love this, itβs the little acts that show our humanity.
