August 25, 2010


Dearest Diary,

I have been informed that there is a rather unusual species of tortoise living on the grounds adjacent to the Granada Estate. The particular tortoise takes its name from the gopher population and I am told it is unlawful to remove or tamper with its nest, a rather large hole similar to that of a fox. I am curious if you, Dear Diary, have had any encounters of your own to speak of with a gopher tortoise. I find it rather peculiar, and yet not all that distinguishable from any other tortoise.

Apart from this intriguing development, there is little else to add to today's conversation. We resumed our weekly hymnsing at the schoolhouse and it seemed to go quite well. I have missed conducting such a gathering far more than I may remember when preparations begin.

There is however, more to take place on the morrow...
