I took the photo of the alligator at the birding reserve on South Padre Island. They also had baby alligators and owls. It was a fun place. I had a blast.
Some of the alligators were raised there, but wild alligators would show up in the marshlands also. All of them are dangerous!
Okay, I’ve been working on Bear in Pursuit. I’m working on finishing it up. I keep thinking about where I’m going with it.
My grandson is staying with me and we’ve had a wonderful time. He turned 5! And we opened birthday presents, took a walk, got ice cream, read stories, and watched a kid’s program.
When we picked up my mail, I had a box of bulbs. Ack. So I need to plant those. And I mistakenly ordered bright white solar lights for the front yard, but already had soft yellow out there. Our mission is to plant the bulbs and move the white lights to the backyard, put together the yellow ones, and put them out front.
I’m fortunate that both my grandkids love to help grandma with projects. I got him a new pair of monster garden gloves so he can wear those for our next gardening adventure.
Off to get things done before he wakes! Have fun!

Okay, not a romantic at heart, says the lion jester.
I finally got the last plant planted, red esperanza. I was still trying to remove a couple of crepe myrtles. No success on the crepe myrtles. The roots go to China, and if you don’t get them all up, they just come right back. I love them, but they just sprout up everywhere.
I’m off to work on Bear in Pursuit. Nearly to 60K.
Have a lovely day, romantic or not!

I loved going there. I wish my son and daughter-in-law still lived there so I could see them and go to all the beautiful places there–forests, museums, wolf park reserve, their lovely zoo.
I need to plant one more plant, just trying to figure out where.
Hope your day is beautiful and you don’t run into a black bear anytime soon! Unless you’re protected!
