Huntin' for Gators








We actually left Louisiana and drove back to Texas to ride some air boats and hunt for gators. The weather was beautiful, yet Billy got pretty sunburned at the end. We had to wear ear plugs, because it gets really loud. We saw at least a dozen gators on the tour, too. They were all sizes. Our boat captain even took off driving like crazy through the water. He said it was only a few feet deep, too. I have to admit, I was a little scared. We learned about the swamps, the trees, the leftovers from war, the gators, the birds, cows, etc. The boys fell asleep at the end. It was almost three hours long and well worth the money. Next time, we'll do the night tour and actually capture an alligator and bring it on the boat.
