Suan on the hunt for Alligators. There are 3 in this photo.

This town has become our " home port". There is a really nice city dock that you can stay at for free. Within 6 blocks, there are 2 drug stores, 3 dollar stores, two grocery stores, 6 good restaurants, and to cap it off, an Ace Hardware. It is also 10 miles from our boat storage location. We are getting hauled out on Monday, May 9, so have returned here to do the preparations for storage. The dock also has free power, which is huge, considering it is 95 degrees ( 36 C) here! We need the air conditioner in the boat!!!
Today, Susan was on an Alligator hunt. She has been disappointed in not seeing many. It is an acquired skill seeing them. Somehow, I figured it out a while back. They lay just under the water, sometimes with their head out, but most of the time with just one or two eyes above the water. You look for circles in the water, and once you focus on that, you can see a bit of their backs and tails gliding along, without a ripple. Yesterday, Susan Got It, and started spotting them more quickly than me. Today, the water was literally teaming with Alligators, from 1 foot long to 8 ft.+!
Well tomorrow, back into the engine room, getting ready for storage.
