Desert Tortoise Days

Not what I expected. I should have gone to the parade.
The Desert Tortoise has a sanctuary to the north of town. Newly assigned and hired folks at Edwards have to go through training about the Tortoise. I kid you not!
It was like a small town carnival. And I mean Small! However two young men decided that a fight was in order. Right in front of the police at the entrance to the festivities. Tasers are kind of neat to see in action. The young punk hit the ground like the proverbial ton of bricks!
The Missus and I did get some cute little wood work name things of the grand daughters and a funnel cake. Gotta have a funnel cake!
We have a large number of "disadvantaged minorities" here in Cal City. They were moved out of the LA area to help fill emtpy apartments,  duplexes and such due to the violence in the LA area. Some folks have told me that there are meth labs and such here. I can't confirm that. I do know that people without jobs drive much nicer outfits than I do.
