ALLIGATOR PARK!!

Today was such a fun day! We went with our friends Richard and Amanda Brannock, and Jeremy Funk to the ALLIGATOR PARK!!! So, we all live in the middle of a large city and we work in the city and go to school in the city! So as you could imagine we are tired of THE CITY!! So we planned a day trip to a State park where there are tons of alligators, and miles of the great outdoors without a building in site. It was so much fun! We walked around with binoculars scanning through the swamps spotting alligators floating in the mossy green water. Then we went to the nature center and we were able to pet a baby alligator. It was so cute and tiny! I was a little hesitant to touch it but I finally worked up the courage put my finger on it.



It was pretty cool! After we were done with the alligators we found a good deep lake and, the cool thing about a state park in Texas you get free fishing with the entry fee, so we threw in two lines and.... well nothing... so after a while we got distracted with the fun conversation with our friends. It eventually got late enough that we decided that we were all hungry so we went and ate pizza together. It was delicious pizza for VERY CHEEP!! Thanks to Curter and his amazing talent at finding the best deals ever!!!
