Every morning when I wake I am greeted by my two dogs Cloudy and Gracie. Now besides being rudely awaken by an over abundance of very sloppy kisses, I have these two sorrowful faces begging me to go outside. Now being the alpha person in this Zoo I feel an obligation to see that this happens, so being the smart person that I am I go to the door and yell “The Dogs Need To Go Out” to my son who is sleeping soundly in his nice warm bed. ( First problem of the day solved) Now I know you are thinking what has this got to do with the tortoise, nothing really I sometimes get side tracked. As you may recall I share a room with Boris/Sweet Apple, so it has become one of my alpha duties to take care of the tortoise. So every day I change his lagoon water, today is no different and after I drag him out from under his moss (his favorite hiding place) I place him in his nice warm water. Now if you recall I told you about how these guys use the water for drinking, bathing and crapping. You see I am not an expert on poop but who knew that tortoise poop looked like white putty. Being the intelligent alpha person that I am, I do what any intelligent person would do, I go to the door and yell “Hey Bill Sweet Apple pooped in her water and somebody has got to clean it.” (Second problem of the day solved) Can’t wait to see what the third problem is.!!!!

I love you being here and its a daily job taking care of the zoo, but I love it.
