Never saw one like that before

Found this turtle in the driveway and then did a double-take, actually a triple take. Never saw a turtle like that before!  
My dad did some research and found out it's an Eastern Box Turtle.
It's actually protected by Michigan law as a special concern species. 
To top it off we saw another Eastern Box Turtle when we visited John Ball Zoo this week. 

Brighton on the Bus

Brighton did a fun summer school program for a few days.  He even went on a couple field trips which included riding the bus a couple times.  That honestly ended up being one of the highlights.  He is begging to ride the bus to school...we'll see.
