Life at Boulderwood:
Rescuing Painted Turtles

Tales from Boulderwood Farm and in this case, Ice Glen Road!! 
 

 

Jim and I get really angry when people run over turtles on our road.  It's a country road, not a super highway and believe it or not there are a lot of Morons (sorry for the strong sentiment) that drive 50 mph down our street and squish these beautiful creatures.  We take great pleasure rescuing these painted (and even snapping) turtles when we see one on the road.  We drove this beauty all the way to the swamp to insure his/her survival!!  Viva la turtle!!
