yertle the turtle

Yesterday Yertle the Turtle died. Well, more accurately, yesterday we discovered a dead turtle in the duck pond and named him Yertle the Turtle. We had a very solemn ceremony for him. Though not as solemn as the one for Craig, Chaela's fish. Some small children helped lay him to rest in his grave beneath a giant oak tree while Stephanie said a few words. It was rather moving.

Also there were paper boats. Rather fitting as today is May Day. (Get it?) Donnie's triumphed over all. Especially Merrill's. That is all.
