Timothy Two For Two Shoes Tuesday

I have been slow in completing my water garden transformation.  It seems when I work on it I always find surprises.  Hubby denies having anything to do with it but the twinkle in his eye gives him away every time.

Paybacks have been greatly needed but my brain has been dull.  Other than slapping the bathroom door and making him yell and jumping out to scare him I haven't found any really good payback.

Well, today was the day.  Meet the wild creature for Two Shoes Tuesday, Timothy Two. Same size, same water garden so if one was placed there logic would tell you T2 was placed there also.
I have nothing against Alligator Snapping Turtles except they eat our fish and do bite what gets in their way. Hubby caught one from a river slough years ago that filled the entire bed of his truck.  This one also bit a large V in the boat paddle.  I respect them and they taste good.

So after I found T2 I thought, Hubby likes these so well I will just give this one to him.  I wrapped him in a cloth and carried him inside and excitedly asked Hubby to look at what I had found.  
Hubby hunted for his flashlight he uses when he wants a good look at something...like arrow heads or rocks. I may have IMPLIED that it was a rock.  He accepted the wrapped object centered the light and unwrapped the SURPRISE.  He wasn't expecting movement and he almost threw it!  I guess I can call that half a pay back.

T2 swam away in the creek where the cattle were resting...but I'm still planning more payback.
