This is the Google Doodle on (I believe) the second day of the Winter Olympics in South Korea (apparently turtles are a good luck charm in Korea). You can see more about the doodle here (including a little animation of the graphics):

I know Ryma would have loved this one, and I thought I’d share it here.
I have dozens of pictures of turtles because I’d always stop and take a photo if I encountered one on the trail while biking or hiking, and I’d forward them to her, just to let her know that I was thinking of her. I have pictures of turtles along the Savannah river and Augusta Canal in my hometown, from when Ryma and I walked there. I have pictures of turtles in aquariums at various places, like Inner Harbor in Baltimore. I’ve even taken pictures of pictures of turtles, which is kind of silly, but I suppose that’s what category this falls into (well, screen grab of an online picture).
She also had many stuffed turtles and turtle figurines, which are all still here in the house.
Turtles were her thing, and they remind me of her.
