Swamp Day

Went out for an airboat ride today.

Four hours back in the bayous, taking a look around.

Some of the canals had people fishing. Others were completely choked with plants.

But these airboats...they can go pretty much anywhere.

And there were gators.

Saw quite a few of the reptiles today, but most moved off too fast for me to get good pics of them.

This guy below was the exception. He didn't move for a long time.

But when he did go, he moved like lightning. Damn those things can move fast.

Pretty good day. Fun and interesting. I'm definitely not in Appalachia any more...or downtown Washington, DC.
