Exploring the Everglades - Everglades National Park

Judd and I decided to explore the Everglades just before sunset after setting up my exhibit. Here we are just before our 1/2 mile walk in the swamps. The best part was the way back to the car at night!!

One more image to come!!

Thanks!

I do not know anything about swamps in general or the Everglades in particular. But what about gators and snakes?

[Maxis Gamez]

Hi David,

Thinking positive and crossing our fingers did it that day for us!! :D However, Judd got bit by what he believes was a fish.

The swamp patrol on the afternoon scout...:eek::p:D You guys make it look easy...love it...:cool:

Hey great, thanks for sharing this!

Gators and snakes are something to watch for, but in general they are not a major concern...just exercise caution in where you step. My leg did get one little pinch from a crayfish...dang little things are territorial and don't like you standing in their spot!! :)

You're both braver than I am! Although I wouldn't turn down the chance to do this, it would definitely have me watching my step every inch of the way!
