For father’s day today, Jim K. and I played golf at EMU’s Eagle Crest Golf Course, which is described in this web site as being part of the “Eagle Crest Resort.” Well, if a corporate hotel and a golf course count as a “resort,” then I guess this is what this is.
Anyway, in the midst of my rather terrible play, we encountered a turtle on the fairway of number 15:
Note that this first video (one or two more animal videos are coming) were posted on Flickr, which I haven’t experimented yet with video. The preference for the service is clearly for short videos.
I suppose it needs to be asked… why do you want to touch its bum?
What was it like? Would you do it again?
I was feeling randy, of course. ;-)
No seriously, I was trying to get it to move, both because it was right in the middle of the fairway was was liable to be hit and/or run over by a golfer, and for my own entertainment at seeing it move. It doesn’t show up in the video, but it started to kind of make a hissing sound after a while. I decided it best to leave it alone then.
