Live at the lake right now..

Check out just how remote that lake is. Its the tiny dot in the middle, Lake "Eck". Those roads around it are dirt roads and most of those are closed off to public, they are access roads to training areas (military). Hardly ever a soul out there.

There are acres upon acres of DENSE forest all around. And that is just a small part of it in the picture. Its quite spooky to go there alone in the evening. Esp. since the area is supposed to be haunted back from the Civil War. Most people go to the big lake for recreation or fishing.

I like to go there because it is so quiet and peaceful. Hanging out with the gator is a big plus. We were just sitting there, enjoying the sunshine (Mr. Gator and I) :)

I was SO thrilled. I've only got to see him one other time. Well, one third time, but he was submerged then and barely visible..

It was worth the long drive through spooky woods to get there, so peaceful, so beautiful, and I got to spend that time with this magnificent creature, both of us enjoying the sun and peace...it was magical :)

LOL! :) :P I finally got it! I read this an hour ago, and then again just now! Finally clicked. Pretty funny tttaylorrr!

I am so beat. Been working AND moving everything out of my old house for the past week and a half. Closing is Friday! I can't wait! I am really tired and punchy!

Then Katie and I have a living room and garage full of boxes to go through! YAY!

Anyway, cool Alligator! Please don't get to close! They can run very fast in a straight line!

I can run pretty fast, too :P

Plus he was down a slight hill. So I had the advantage. I didn't get super close. I wasn't even that worried about myself, but I didn't want him to have to give up his sunbath and get into the water because of me disturbing him. We've had some pretty cold nights and I knew how much he must have enjoyed the sun on him!

Buying/selling/moving homes is lots of work and stress for sure, but in the end, it will all be worth it!! Hang in there..

Really?

It was the most peaceful and awesome time I've had in a while. It was perfect!
I think that old gator is beautiful...
