this small local turtle that i’ve been seeing everyday popped his head up. if you’re not use to seeing this, it will be a treat for sure.

so i dive down and swim with it. there is a special way to swim with turtles. never swim towards it, swim along it’s side. show the turtle you aren’t a danger and it will swim along with you.
