My nickname since high school has been turtle...I think that pretty much sums it up:) From owning box turtles to red-eared turtles, big & small, since I was a kid, I've collected and been given millions of turtle items throughout the years....from shower curtains to socks. Not only have I also been an avid supporter of protecting sea turtles with many org like WWF & SEEturtles.org, but I have an adopted sea turtle named "Erny" who's swimming in the ocean somewhere right now....My family and I would TURTLEY love to enjoy reptile day and get to witness our first official turtle race!

I'd love to win tickets to Reptile Day! It would be fun to bring my son, in-laws, husband and baby to the special event. My in-laws are visiting from Massachusetts. Ironically, my husband & I, who live in Miami, did a triathlon in Massachusetts years ago with someone who lives part-time in Florida..well..years later, we are watching " Gator boys" and he's the main "Gator Boy"! My in-laws have never been to the museum--they'd love it. My son would enjoy it too..being only 5 months (on Sunday)..he hasn't seen many reptiles up-close..but don't get TOO close! ;) Thank you! Hope it's not too late to enter!
