  16. Hard to tell how big he/she is. What do you think? Inches? Anything bigger than 6" and I don't think I could handle being that close!

  17. Wow, what a shot of the alligator. So close!!! I saw these in the wild at Ding Darlings and it was amazing.
    I will finally be moving to FL. April 1. Maybe we will finally get to meet. :)
