Tiny turtle

I photographed this little guy while at the Turtle Hospital in Marathon, Florida.

It is a magical place, full of caring people that really love sea turtles.

At the time, I think he was sucked into the water cooling area of the electrical plant. 

Once rescued, checked out, he became an ambassador of sorts for the hospital.

He traveled quite a bit before growing too large and being released.

Today has been a full day of painting, appointments, and grand coming to play in the pool.

We always enjoy his activity level and are ready when it's bedtime for all of us!

I also got everything together for my classes I'm teaching at the Alabama Contemporary in two weeks.

We are winding down summer already here, with a camping trip planned, 

a final week of art camp, 

and of course painting every day!
