Journaling

Tom joined me on an adventure to the Everglades.

We stopped at the kitschy Everglades Holiday Park for an airboat ride.

The guide talked a lot about preserving the environment, but he also

used popcorn to lure the birds close to the boat. Hmmm,,,

Luckily he kept a fair distance from the alligators.

 

He pointed out black vultures hanging out in the trees,

and the brouwn and black grackles which were very

interested in the popcorn. But my favorite were the

purple gallinules; they were so adorably awkward.

Although they can swim, they cleverly use the

foliage to avoid disturbing the water and attracting

the attention of the aligators.

 

Afterwards we took in the aligator show.

That young mandragged a gator out of the pond by its

tail in order to puthis face near its mouth. All I could think of was Captain Hook!

Delightful journaling, Kate! Loved reading your story. The page is beautiful--like the sections and the sawgrass peeking from behind the pics. The page pops with your use of the striped paper! Beautiful page!

You got some great photos! I love your page and especially your delightful journaling. Aren't the Everglades amazing? I understand its ecology is unique on this earth.

You scrapped the pictures so well ... what a enjoyable page, so much to see. It's been 40+ years since I've been there and it was good to visit through your page.
