Have You Met Tank?
If you don't know Tank, let me introduce you.
Tank is a tortoise. But I guess you could tell.
She belongs to our neighbor.
Tank is not a boy but a girl.
She had been named Tank when they thought she was a he and they decided to keep Tank as her name.
Tank likes to visit her neighbors.
She gets around and is remarkably fast for a tortoise.
She likes to visit us and eat our weeds.
And that's a good thing.
We have lots of weeds for her to feed on.
She was in our yard one day when the UPS guy delivered a package.
He was quite excited and wondered if we knew we had a turtle in our yard.
I said, "Oh yea. That's Tank. She's the neighborhood tortoise."
Doesn't every neighborhood have a tortoise?
Some neighborhoods are known for their dogs.
Some have the cat that everyone knows.
But our neighborhood has a tortoise.
And her name is Tank.
She's friendly.
And I think all neighborhoods should have a tortoise.
