Yesterday I had my first sighting that told me "Yes you do live in Florida". I was coming home in my golf cart after watching the Christmas Parade which was held at the polo grounds. (It by the way was wonderful. I will try and get some pictures up here of it.) Suddenly I saw a group of golf carts pulled off into the grass by a pond. Being the curious person I am I stopped as well to see what was going on. (You can do that when traveling by golf cart. You just pull off onto the grass.) Everyone was pointing and there were a few cameras out. I happened to have mine with me since I had been at the parade. Off in the distance, not too far from peoples back yards was a gator sitting out and taking advantage of the afternoon sun. He was a pretty good sized one too! This is one of the reasons I wouldn't pay a premium to be living with a pond or lake in my back yard. Another would be slithery things that like to hang out in the tall grasses along the pond. YUK! I like my nice small, just another house behind it back yard. Suits me just fine!
