thanks Yvonne. My job has been keeping me exceedingly busy lately, so I've only had time to lurk here occasionally. But after this recent acquisition, I couldn't resist sharing!
Michael, nice to hear from you. Great looking little star love its pattern like a tiki hut
We are planning our 2nd meeting for June 13th and I think someplace near you would be a good idea. Any Ideas of a good Pizza Place or resturant big enough for a few of us?
Robyn, There is a Domenico's Italian Restaurant on Santa Anita/just south of the 210 fwy in Arcadia (east of Pasadena). They have a banquet room if there are enough of us and they serve all kinds of Italian food.
Yes, they hibernates and are both eating like little piggies now. Still growing fast and enjoying the southern California sunshine in their outdoor enclosure. I took Danny's advice and screened the whole top, allowing for more sunshine. I also planted it with some tortoise-friendly native plants. I'll try to get some pictures up soon.
