I saw two of these box turtles Saturday afternoon when it was about 70F/20C at a nearby pond.

Thank you,. and of course you are correct.  I just read an article about how the painted turtle is the hardiest or their family, able to hibernate longer and at lower temperatures than other turtles.  When it gets cold again tomorrow it will probably return to hibernation.
