It's great to see those Box Turtles! We have quite a few here in my neck of the woods but they've become very scarce in many places where they used to be common.
Andre the seal
.
Andre the Seal (May 16, 1961 – July 19, 1986)[1] was a male harbor seal pup found off the island of Robinson's Rock in Penobscot Bay, Maine
The seal was adopted by Harry Goodridge, who was then a tree surgeon and the Harbormaster of Rockport, Maine. Harry raised the pup, hoping the seal would become his scuba diving companion, and expecting that the seal would eventually return to the wild when given the opportunity. Instead, Andre chose to stay with Harry in Rockport until his death in 1986.

The Boston Museum of Science is also great.
Got to sleep inside over night with the cub scouts one night.
Yes, that is a great place too; my husband particularly enjoyed it.
Lucky you! We went a couple of times but never got to sleep over. We almost did a sleep over on the USS Hornet some years ago in Aladema, CA, but something else came up. Wish had had now.

Views as taken Friday from and near the house and close by Estuary Park and Wildlife Preserve:
From the same vantage point, a look South toward the active Volcano Mount Redoubt some 100 plus miles distant. It is rarely seen from this far distant.
Also evident is the jutting promontory of land known as Point Possession where Captain Cook's men on his final voyage in 1778 planted the British Flag claiming possession of the land. At this site they also buried a container of artifacts to include Coins of the Realm.
@1northcoin Great pics as always. Thanks for taking the time.

That's really fun to look at! So many familiar faces...
Damn, it's too early to start the snow pictures................
From last year - I opened their door after the first snow of the year and they freaked out - All I heard from this one was "WTF is THIS?"
"When they can't find anything wrong with you, they create it!"
It looks more like a shark with the dorsal fin.
OMG. Did I just comment on a emeraldATV picture?

The “Golden Hour” was perfect for a few pictures tonight in Florence. I literally took hundreds this week of various views and subjects near the Arno River. These pictures were with the IPhone, I’m excited to see what my pictures from my Canon look like.

Sunset on Catalina Island.
In 1919, chewing gum entrepreneur William Wrigley Jr. bought Catalina so his Chicago Cubs would have a warm location for spring training.
Not what you want to see on the fence by the bird feeders. Sorry about pics - they were taken through 2 windows with telephoto

LA Chargers home opener at SoFi Stadium. Beautiful facility but the home team lost.
^ at least there were no brawls. That's because there are very few Charger fans in LA. Louder cheering by the visiting team fans.

Yesterday evening's digging for buried victims of The Cereal Killer.
Actually there were more Chargers fans at the game than Dallas fans.
Fighting at most Chargers games is dependent upon the Raiders playing and alcohol.
