This thread is amazing. I just floated an 18' cedar log in my pond and anchored it in place most days we have 5-10 turtles on it. Before I anchored it, the wind would blow it around and the turtles on it would all go sightseeing like they had their own cruise ship.
A lot of good old threads on this forum. Every once in a while one gets drug back up to the forefront, which is a good thing.
