At Downtown Crystal Lake, Makani is excited for the crafts show his family visited! The first thing he did was get ice-cream at Mellie’s chocolate. He loved the new flavor he tried was peanut butter ice-cream.

After that Makani went to The Flag Store & so much more, he got a doll for his daughter Squirty.

There was a D.J. and the music was loud and upbeat! Defiantly a place Makani would recommend.

*28th Dimension English Dictionary:

1. Chrysemys: Due to the term “Turtle” being a family and not a genus, “painted Turtles” are called  Chrysemys, not “painted Turtles”.

2. Midland Chrysemys: Due to the term Turtle being a family and not a genus, “Midland painted Turtles” are called Midland Chrysemys.

Uncharismatic Fact of the Day

Ever had a meal in the bath? The painted turtle does it every day! The tongues of this species can't move freely, so in order to swallow their food they have to be under water.

Eastern painted turtles I saw yesterday, Chrysemys picta. It was a good day for basking in the sun.

Trash buildup over a month in the bandalong.

PLEASE dispose of your shit properly. ESPECIALLY if it's styrofoam. Styrofoam breaks up into tiny beads and is impossible for us to clean. We have to throw out woody debris because it gets covered in the stuff, which gets rid of important habitat for guys like

This painted turtle (Chrysemys picta) and lil toad were using the bandalong as habitat (lots of tasty fish and bugs congregate on it)

Also if you pee in a bottle...pls...dispose of it properly...you'd be surprised how many bottles we find with suspiciously yellow liquid.
