Something about nature brings me balance. Just a few hours and I feel normal again

Ah, not enough cell signal to post pics, but I just saw a 10 foot alligator about 30 feet away from me while I was paddling. Thankfully the kids weren’t in the boat

@kellogh I was walking on a trail in the Florida Keys and heard that gator roar.

I didn’t know exactly what it was, but it was damn clear I should just turn myself around and leave.

Pics have arrived. Here’s the alligator. You can see his snout, eyes and back. I took pics and subsequently fled the scene, although he seemed more interested in staying away from me #SilentSunday #NorthCarolina

@kellogh gator!

Honestly, this place is incredible. It’s practically unknown, yet rivals the coolest shit I saw in WA, OR and CA #mosstodon #SilentSunday #NorthCarolina

Pond water with a thick layer of beautiful green algae that contrasts with the blue sky. Cypress tree islands sprouting from the pond with thick Spanish moss hanging from the branches

@kellogh Where is it? I think I've been there, but I'm not sure.

When I read and re-read this book in elementary school, I always imagined he was hanging out in places lie this. In South Carolina, of course...

@kellogh Beautiful! There isn’t a single place to paddle near me where you won’t be face to face with a gator at some point. Keep your distance and it’s usually just fine 😅
