go noles!

Blurrrry.  But this has to go in here because this is P and his old college roommate + son!

Kids, always playing around

2 alligators and 2 turtles lounge together on a bed of... vegetation.  Apparently, hard-shell turtles are not afraid of alligators.

3 vultures and an alligator

I had never been to Tallahassee, but I found it to be very different from the rest of Florida.  It's beautiful, with the romantic Spanish moss hanging on the trees and the lush forests.  P and I went to go to a Florida State game and to visit his old roommate.  It was Veteran's Day, so there was a lot of recognizing of the troops.  The paratroopers and the firecrackers were all a part of the celebration.  I'm a little sad that I didn't take more pictures of the crowd, but I noticed that all the FSU girls were well put together!  They like, DO their hair!  For a football game no less!  P says that in general, they all wear too much makeup.  I did notice that little girls had way too much "grown-up" makeup on.  Toddlers and Tiaras much?

We also visited Wakulla Springs State Park, which was simply amazing.  We saw a ton of wildlife while just coasting down the river.
