Camera Critters #28

A few years ago, before the hurricanes rocked the Florida coast, Coastie Brother's family and my family spent a week together at our mom's timeshare in Navarre Beach, Florida. The kids had a great time together. The adults did too. I love Navarre Beach. I'm sad we can no longer go there. The timeshare was destroyed. And, of course, that would happen just as my best friend growing up moved close to the area. Sigh.

Anyway, one night we all ate at Fudpucker's, a fun hamburger joint in Destin. Not only do they have yummy food but also gators!

Awesome! I grew up in FL but i never held a gator. One lived in my backyard for a while, though. It was large enough that you didn't want to mess with it!

EEEKKK!!!! No way no how would I ever hold a gator regardless if it's mouth was wired shut or not. Look at those brave kids. I rather look at a gator through a glass cage. Great shot!!

No, it's Fudpucker's, Ratmammy. We have a Fudrucker's here and I used to get myself confused all the time!

I've always said a burger just isn't a burger until you have a nice side of gator to go with it.

I have a photo sorta like that! Not taken at Fudpuckers though, but I think at Alvins Island or something in PCB, FL. :)
