Rock turtles in blue waters . . .their crawl so slow it’s imperceptible

Clever, Andrea. If I swam near a rock turtle and it moved, I'd break Mark Whatshisname's record.

Well Andrea, congratulations on your win in the contest. This is an excellent Monoku. It is so easy to understand this one when one looks at the picture. The way the Monoku is written, one would understand it without the picture. Excellent. A Seven and into my Faves....Mike.

I guess that's why they call them rock turtles. That's probably why the last time I went to skip a rock across the lake...it bit me. Love you, A Perceptible Fav!
