Well, you have to admit, the weather has been beautiful these past few days....both man and beast seem to be enjoying the sunshine.

Yesterday, hubby and I were driving to our postal station and there's a small "pond" near the road, really quite small. It's always been there in the years we've lived here. I no sooner thought, "That little body of water is probably too small for gators," when lo and behold, there it was, snout and eyes above the water line. Wasn't a big fella, but still, I was glad not to be living in the house nearby.

The beasties are interesting to watch, that's for sure....FROM A VERY SAFE DISTANCE!!!
