Yesterday we decided to check out the Texas back country and headed out to Brazos Bend State Park. We were lured by the promise of seeing Alligators in all of their bad bayou glory. We were not disappointed. It was a sweltering 38 degrees and, to be frank, I wasn't expecting to be impressed by the park but I was pleasantly surprised by how beautiful it actually was. Hanging moss, cranes, alligators, frogs, turtles, blue sky, canopy trees, buzzing insects and unusual vegetation made us feel like we were walking through some old Southern movie. All-in-all, it was a melt-your-skin-off great day.

We have a video if an alligator that we got a lot closer to that I'll post later. It was pretty cool.
