Dead Gator

// September 10th, 2008 // 2 Comments » // Environment, Hunting, Outdoors

My first dead gator. Team of three took this 10.5 footer down tonight on a flat boat. I was the one pulling him up from the bottom. Will post a little movie later if I can.

Hurricane Fay Advice

Non-Floridians like myself are generally unprepared for hurricanes the first time. Have no clue what to expect or what to get ready.

Sometimes I see things that make me giggle. Most of the time these things have irony in them.

Front Row Seat at Life

// August 17th, 2008 // 1 Comment » // Community, Environment, Family, Learning, Outdoors, Parenting

I love that my daughters have the same persistent curiosity about life that my wife and I have. This afternoon’s birthday party had my daughters nudging the other kids for the front row seat at the backyard, portable petting zoo. They love exploring new things.

Here is the run down:
Donkey
Turtles
Rabbits
Chicks
Ducks
Goat
Sheep
Rooster
Piglets

Time to get back on the waterslide or in the bouncehouse or pool. Gotta go.
