IT'S TURTLE TIME! Please
keep an eye open for turtle crossings while travelling local
roadways! At this time of year diamondback terrapins seek
high ground on which to lay eggs and often cross roadways while
doing so. Although some of our roadways have turtle fences
along them, turtles can still be found crossing in many areas.
Please slow down to avoid them! If you're inclined to help
a turtle across the road, please take all necessary steps to
ensure your own safety in traffic, and then cross the turtle in
the direction it was headed.
SHE SAID YES! Christina was
surprised when Connor proposed on the dock...as Miss Avalon
pulled up with a boatload of cheering fans onboard!
Watch
the fun here!
