    18-Gator Day!

    Oh, and did I mention snakes?  Today we saw the most snakes out sunning on branches that we’ve ever seen in one trip. Joan, head of the Presbyterian Disaster Assistance camp in Houma, LA and her hubby, Jeff, joined Termite and me today for their very own little wetland tour.  The trip was a birthday…

    You poke it in the eye with a stick. What were you expecting? Sorry, I couldn’t resist. It’s that time of year again.  There’s a little cool snap in the air, a little less humidity, and it’s time to either freshen up or build your duck blind.  Some of you might recall our duck hunting…

    Am I smarter than a 7th grader?

    Well, I might be smarter than the AVERAGE 7th grader, but I’m certainly not as smart as the 7th graders in  Termite’s Honors Math Class who can graph liner equations quicker than I can say it.
