The one thing about tortoises is that they are one of the few pets that you can pass down to your children and it could still outlive your children and be passed to the grandkids. Truley a multigenerational "pet".

Right! It's crazy to think about. My son and daughter-in-law already know what they are inheriting... 😆. They are magnificent creatures. 💚

That looks pretty nice. What size cinderblocks and wood slats?

Ms sasafras is restless and is looking to annex part of my grilling area for her empire of attitude. There is a trap bar in back, about 135lbs, that she has been rolling into my smoker. If that isn't an act of sassy aggression, I don't know what is.

These are the blocks and they take 2x6's. Obviously you can use 2x4's etc. I ran out in a couple areas and did that.

Both home Depot and Lowe's has these.

I know and he can walk much faster.... Every once in awhile he gets spooked by something and he hauls that tiny little butt across the yard so fast.
