So much fun yesterday! We drove down to Everglades City and had lunch at the Rod & Gun Club. Sounds strange - yes? One of those old, old (1864)fishing hunting lodges with huge veranda, lots of stuffed animals, fish, & trophies on the walls. And, yes, Hemingway did visit, along with 5 presidents, and endless other famous people. Very fresh fish and gator. Yup, we had fried alligator as an appetizer. Tiffany & I thought it was a little chewy...
The other point of the trip was to see the giant piles of huge alligators that we always see in the area (Big Cypress Preserve) within a few feet of the dirt road. Hmmm...not so much. We weren't skunked, but only saw a fraction of the norm. Don't know where they all went, but clearly it has something to do with the massive amount of rain we had over the last 6 weeks. It's supposed to be the dry season. Sorry Tiff & Chris!
I'm going to fling up a lot more pictures than usual, so apologize in advance if they pop up in a weird visual.
