I got up and tested my 'new leg' on a hike through the Haney Creek Trail. [*The photo above is the Sunset Bay Marina (shown far right) and Sailors Return Restaurant directly ahead.]
The Park is about a 1/2 mile down the road and open daily to the general public. I decided a nice hike would be a great test for my new leg...
It was hot. Hot and sticky with a light breeze to keep me alive when i found shade. I spotted the Alligator the first thing out of the car. He was about 4 feet long snout to tail tip. With a head the size of a Pit Bull. (estimated length as i was too far away to measure for sure) This kept me on my toes the remainder of the hike watching each step and keeping me looking carefully when i neared the water.
I didnt see any snakes or even a second alligator during my visit. I saw a few turtles and lots of birds and flowers. It was a lovely day to get out and test drive the leg. It performed perfectly.
I'm loving this new leg. Let's all get up and get some exercise.
