    That Gerber looks more like a tool than a knife. It has to be pleasing to the eye......

    By the way, I am not afraid to sharpen my own blades. That replaceable blade stuff is for city boys.

    👀 I'm both extremely scared and perhaps slightly aroused right now. It's just a really confusing time.

    Because of turtles or the entire animal kingdom in general? For some reason, I'm mightily confused by your statement. :) Bewildered too. Oh to be able to decipher meaning in the written word....

    This is the Mossy Oak. Both the camo and black knives. I love it except you can’t get blades for it. It’s my go to utility hunting knife. The Gerber is my dressing and butchering knife.

    I do love my Navy issued dive knife. It’s pretty clutch except too large to bother with for most things.

    I sharpen them too. I got a couple stones. And, I’ll have you know I don’t use jigs. I sharpen all my tools except table saw blades and thickness planer blades. Those I send out for a pro to sharpen.

    Only knife-playing, Harley Quinn adopting, city boy loathing @JessD9031 may know for sure 😉

    ETA: and still no 🐢 pic because I'm wayward and distracted today 🤣

    Well in that case bring it on! But I swear, if I find a claw in my piece, you all are going to hear my screams from north to south and back again. :)

    Did someone say "turtles?" This one's a throw back pic - from about 12 years ago - when I took the kids and my grandmother to Disney World. This guy was outside our hotel and they were mesmerized for a good 10 minutes over this creature.

    City kids 🤷🏾‍♀️

    I've looked at this pic while browsing for a minute or three and ya know what I see?

    You're son and daughter are very inquisitive and want to see and learn everything they can about the turtle.

    Your son is representative of most boys wanting to get get right in there and get his hands dirty. Your daughter similar but wanting to observe before diving in.

    But, beyond that, I see your daughter looking after her brother. She's just as intrigued as he is but is acting as his overwatch ensuring he's safe.

    I dunno. Just my opion.

    Yes, even now at 21 and 16...despite them exploring with "getting dirty" and "diving in" in ways and venues I do not always approve of or understand

    But, beyond that, I see your daughter looking after her brother. She's just as intrigued as he is but is acting as his overwatch ensuring he's safe.

    She calls him her "son" 🙄 lol They care for each other. And even if I don't always agree with how they move or their reasoning (ahem, or lack thereof) behind it, what I know for sure is that they will always have each other's back.

    I could die at peace today knowing this alone.


    I dunno. Just my opion.

    How dare you get me in my feelings 🥺 I'm an Ice Queen. You're a good man, @tmanfive. You're a good man.

    Life looks a little better today after reading all this.

    Aww.. look at his, "Im not amused" little face 😄

    He "disagrees" with being caught and relocated.

    Grouchy bowling ball face.

    They didn't get a warning for their first offenses? You're a tough one. :)

    Sea turtle release. Not sure if this is a loggerhead or leatherback...pretty big turtle, though.
