These photos bring my blood pressure down. Everything looks so peaceful. Love the stove. I am wondering why coming out from the water is dangerous for the little turtle... Maybe because he's supposed to be hibernating down in the bottom of the pond? I am beginning to think Turtle Paradise isn't such a turtle paradise! We have a lush and very fertile backyard visited by squirrels and scrub jays. This is a city so some of the squirrels smoke crack and the scrub jays listen to loud rap music. Our little oasis is about 25 x 25 feet large. It would be nice to live in the country and I respect what appears to be your very "old-school" sort of lifestyle. I'm a fan of the old British TV series, Victorian Farm, and its sequel, Edwardian Farm. Have you seen them? If not, I bet you would really enjoy.

Beautiful photos, and that stove is a keeper. What’s the story behind it?
