I really like the Tortoise. Is he yours, or does he just hang around your yard?

Hi Grizzly,

He's one of my pets. He's a Sulcata tortoise, and weighs about 63 pounds or so. He's about 12 years old. He lives in my backyard (AKA my jungle

) I also have a Bennett's Wallaby, bearded dragons, clown fish, and chihuahuas. I had a caiman up to a couple of months ago and we had a massive storm and he got away (the neighbors weren't real excited!!!) Take care,

Mike

A wallaby! I want to come see. Sounds like a good fieldtrip for the Dallas Boxster-ers.

Hi Timothy,

My house is way too messy to have a fieldtrip to (according to my wife) , however, if some of the Boxster guys wanted to come down to Waxahachie, I'd be glad to show y'all around our historic Courthouse one Saturday or Sunday, and maybe grill a few burgers off my balcony in the picture, and then maybe head off on a drive on some of our twisty farm to market roads. And, I could bring Irwin (my wallaby) to show the group. If there's enough interest, respond to the post and we'll set something up.

Mike, i thought it was cool that you had a tortoise, but now that i see that picture i think your amazing, and i would totally drive to see it, lol.

Chpanther69,

Here's another one for you, this is the only pic I have of Irwin in the Porsche, I kept trying to get him to pose standing up holding the wheel, but he is kinda stubborn. Ha, ha! In all seriousness, if we could get up a group of 10 or so, we have a pretty good restaurant down here called Catfish Plantation (it's supposedly haunted and has been featured many times on TV, publications etc.). that we could all go to dinner or lunch at and if y'all wanted to bring the spouses or girlfriends, there are some great antique and knick knack shopping on the square around the courthouse that they might enjoy and I'd give everyone a tour of the courthouse (you'd be surprised at the amount of tourists we get from all over the world that just come to see the architecture) and then we could all set off for some fun on the FM roads, just bring the V1's.
