I wanted to dedicate this day, May 4, 2020 to the fact that the Florida State Parks are open effective today. This was taken before the lockdown as we travelled for a day trip to Ravine Gardens State Park in Palatka, Florida.

Yep! Everywhere in Florida is gator territory. If there’s a puddle of water, there could be a gator lurking. 😳

I have an irrational fear of alligators, and I want to move to Florida…

They are not too aggressive with people most of the time. Just like snakes, get educated and you will be okay.

you mentioned my other fear – snakes. I guess they fall into the same category. I guess at some point I’ll have to deal with my fears…

Facing your fears is a good thing. How about hurricanes? We have those too. 😳

I’d take a hurricane over an alligator any day…

What happens when the hurricane pushes water up to your house and a gator comes with it in the surge? I’m not helping, am I? 😳

It’s hot and humid down there but the Gulf Coast beaches are great. I lived in the Tampa area for 21 years. My kids & grandkids are still down there so we travel (not lately) several times a year down there to see them.

Hot and humid is my favorite kind of weather – so that sounds quite appealing!

Let me know when you get here and Frank & I will be glad to escort you to the Alligator Farm in St. Augustine. It’s safe and you will face your fears. They are similar to snakes. Give them their space and they don’t bother you. A big thing here is don’t feed them because that makes them more aggressive and they will come looking for a hand 🤚🏻out. Okay, pun intended. 😂

I would probably need to take something to calm my nerves before I went to an alligator farm 🙂 But I do like St. Augustine!

Well that would be ok. The lighthouse is right near there. We like to go climb it.

Yes we do. I actually prefer the beaches on the east coast along the Atlantic than the west coast along the Gulf of Mexico.
