(top is Bonnie , bottom is Clyde)
Remember our fugitive iguanas, Bonnie and Clyde? (no joke, those are their names) Anyway, Clyde hung out in a tree in our backyard for a few days, and eventually disappeared. We had almost given up hope of getting them back, when lo and behold, Bonnie turned up in our yard, just walking around on the ground. Hubby walked over to her, picked her up and put her in the cage. That simple!
So we printed up some fliers about Clyde (still missing) with our phone number and placed them around the neighborhood. The next day we got a call from a nearby neighbor who said that Clyde had been in his yard the day before, but he had disappeared again. So far, he has been spotted a couple times and seems to still be on our block. We plan to continue searching and trying to get him back.
This is a full body pic of Bonnie, just to give you an idea. Both Bonnie and Clyde are about 4 and 1/2 feet long including tails.

The joys of traveling:
A man and a woman, who have never met before, find themselves assigned to the same sleeping room on a transcontinental train.
Though initially embarrassed and uneasy over sharing a room, the two are tired and fall asleep quickly...he in the upper bunk and she in the lower.
At 1:00 AM, he leans over and gently wakes the woman saying, "Ma'am, I'm sorry to bother you, but would you be willing to reach into the closet to get me a second blanket? I'm awfully cold."
"I have a better idea," she replies. "Just for tonight, let's pretend that we're married."
"Wow! That's a great idea!!" he exclaims. "Good," she replies. "Get your own damn blanket!"
After a moment of silence, he farted.

Nice iguanas. I like the names. Hope you get clyde before a stray cat or dog goes after him. Get your own damn blanket. Damn that rings a bell, grin.
Steve, thanks! I don't think a cat would hurt the iguana - they can defend themselves very well with their tails (they whip with them, it hurts!) and their sharp claws. A large dog though may be a danger. Fortunately for the iguanas, they climb trees!
Hi Christina, that's a hell of a lot of lizard our local iguanas are called goannas and they grow to about that size too
Loved the travelers joke, may have to steal it for later.
LOL...I'll be telling that joke...it's actually a clean one.
Karyn - are you shocked or something?
Shits sake! You have iggies? UGH. Made my ears buzz seeing them.
:O)
Iggies? IGGIES??
Those Brits sure have a cute turn of phrase. (Good joke, btw.)
