So I showed my husband my new blog and he laughed when he saw my banner photo. “Um. I’m not sure what you’re trying to tell people when they go to your blog.” I said, “what? I love that picture. I took that from one foot away on the Louisiana swamp.” He replied, “yeah, I know where you took it. I was there.” True story. He was sitting next to me. We were in a six-seater airboat on the swamp and our guide was feeding marshmallows to the alligators. And this little guy apparently really likes marshmallows because he came right up to the side of the boat and posed for this picture. Or it could have been the weird distressed-baby-alligator sounds the guide was making in his throat since, apparently, big alligators think baby alligators are very tasty. Either way, I guess he was looking for a snack.
Okay. I’m off-topic. Why the alligator? Because I’m a lawyer and I didn’t have a cool, close-up photo of a shark.
