Never a dull moment

Thor found a porcupine this morning and not the soft cute one in his mouth. In a flash he came back with quills in his face and foot. It looked like he had pawed at it and then it smacked him. The quilling wasn't too bad so we were able to get them all out. After his experience I gave him the stuffed one as a consolation for the pain he had to endure.
The second picture is a turtle that was crossing the road after we had a good amount of rain yesterday. I took his picture and moved him to a location he had less chance of being run over. One of my
customers said they were fly fishing on Pine Creek yesterday morning. The water was clear and low when they noticed it start to get muddy. They said within a few minutes the creek rose and turned into a muddy river. His wife had to walk a distance to a bridge to get back across the river. Even when it isn't raining here the water can come from up North faster than you think. Guess that is what they mean by flash flood warning.
Lee and I are heading out to the Rattlesnake Festival in Morris today so should have some pictures to share later. Mountain girl, Paula, logging off.
