My client paused and leaned against the fence, "There's a turtle in the yard. Wow, there's another one." I came closer and quite camouflaged in the distance was a Desert Turtle making its way across the lawn on its way to meet a fellow turtle yard-mate. You never know what you will see when showing houses.
I missed the warning sign, but I think the surprise was lovely. However, I must admit it did not shock me nearly as much as the time I opened the kitchen door to find a pot-bellied pig enjoying a nap and blocking the entrance.
Before we left the property we discovered a baby turtle napping in the sunshine. We locked up and moved on to the next property on the show list. I must admit the other properties were vacant and we did not encounter any pets or people. The properties were lovely but none quite so memorable as the one with the back yard crawling with turtles!
Definitely not just another day at the office--and I like that!
