Very true my wife once got an alligator purse and it did resemble an old friend.

Reminds me of the old joke.

The old man sitting on a park bench in a nudist colony was obviously admiring the young lady walking by. She noticed, stopped, and asked him "Why are you staring at me!" He responded, my wife has an outfit just like yours, but hers needs ironing.

Alligators need ironing.

I remember my mother having an alligator purse! It must’ve been a small alligator because it also had the head on it! Ewww! She also had a fox stole that had the head on it as well! Even then I thought it was disgusting! Can you imagine anyone doing that now? Yuck!

Alligators
 
Grandkids coming in June and really want to see Alligator ( they love dinosaurs) where is the best place you find them? I know they may not be there but just a ride in golf cart for a 3 and 5 year old!!!.

They can be found in most ponds/lakes off and on. I normally photograph them in the ponds across the street from Magnolia Plaza, but, I see others seeing them all over.

But be careful, they are getting too friendly, people and are feeding them and they are chasing what the fishermen with their catch.

I haven't seen anyone feeding them, but it would not surprise me. And it is the worst thing you can do.
