Turtles of Sleepy Hollow Lake - 05 - Rafting on a Log

(Turtles of Sleepy Hollow Lake - 05) While watching this and other turtles upon a floating log, I thought about my own childhood, when my friends and I attempted to build a log raft and float upon the water, but without the success of Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn.  This turtle took advantage of a natural log raft where he or she soaked up the warming sun.  May we always allow them to enjoy these simple pleasures.

Presented here are just a few of the countless components of God's creation.  Just as we cannot have human and animal life without water and plants, neither can we have lasting peace without love and compassion.  It is our hope and prayer that this series will motivate people to live and act in a cruelty-free manner; that we would no longer hurt or destroy each other, the animals or our environment.
