see ya later, alligator.

So this is what a I did last Saturday.  I realized before I left that the one thing I really wanted to do was sit on an alligator, and boy was it fun!  To be honest, it is a little scary to sit on something that could bite your arm off in a second, but they did tape the mouth shut (with what looked like electrical tape) before people sat on him.  After I sat on an alligator I went and fed the bigger ones hotdogs and then saw a creepy crawler show that featured a boa constrictor and various other types of snakes.  It was a great Saturday.  Work has been slow since the end of August but will be picking for the Food and Wine festival that starts September 30 and runs until the middle of November.  A couple of weeks ago I had the chance to head out to Phoenix to visit my cousin for 5 days and that was so much fun.  It was nice to get away for a while but I was glad to come back home.  It's hard to believe that in just 2 and a half months I will be heading back to the great white North.  The time past 9 months have gone by fast and I'm sure the next two will go by in a blink of an eye.  Just wanna send out a big thank you to everyone who reads this blog! I know I've been slacking on the number of posts (an entire month went by with nothing) but I've finally gotten a little bit of down time now to catch up.  We have a house inspection coming up on Sunday so I've been busy getting the house ready for that.  A couple of my friends have finished their program and are getting ready to leave, so we've been having a lot of throw outs lately which is sad but I guess we all knew that coming into the job that we would eventually leave.  I think I just heard the dryer beep, must get back to cleaning. 

from Florida with love,
