Hi Tyler – I did not check your Website for a while. Looking at photos at Wakula Springs right not. Just saw a close-up of a super nice butterfly. Looking for “alligators on the left and alligators on the right”. That’s what I recall from our last boat trip there. Makes me want to come south RIGHT now. Cloudy, gloomy and raining right now. I usually like a rainy day but this is the 3rd day. I’m anxious to hear how 8th grade is going after the first week. Miss you guys. Today is 8/28. Have a great Birthday celebration tomorrow for Ken. Love. P.S. – I just saw the photo of the alligator with the super long tail – WOW.
