One day, down by the river, I saw two turtles on one log looking at another turtle several feet away on another log and wondering, “how do we get there?”
Then, a beautiful black lab caught my heart. He was chasing an orange baton thrown over his head. Jumping high, he made a perfect dive while catching his prize, then swam back to shore, ready to do it over again.
After thanking his owner, a local paramedic, he titled my turtle story, “Sometimes, you just got to jump.” Then, turning, he put goggles on the lab, he liked to call ‘Boggles’, to keep the bugs out of his eyes, and they left.
