Oliver and I took the turtle back to its home this afternoon. We watched it swim off into the river. Oliver was saying "Bye Bye Turtle". lol

WooHoo, I'm sure "turtle" is happy to be home after a slight vacation.

my dad used to rescue painted turtles from the busy road behind our place (there was a river on the other side of the road). I'd get to keep them for a few days and then we'd take 'em back to the river. It was very cool as a little kid and I never had any problems with getting sick or anything. You just have to make sure you're washing your hands and stuff - and not letting your kid eat them (it still makes me angry that I couldn't buy those tiny turtles anymore after those kids ate them. I was an adult with no children. I wasn't going to eat the freakin' thing!)

it was in Wisconsin too - painted turtles are pretty common.

Yay, Lissa and Oliver!
