Here are the pictures I wanted to upload a couple of days ago but the Google Blogger was screwed up and it wouldn't let me. It appears the problem is only with the Blogger and Internet Explorer so I am now using Google Chrome with the blog. It actually seems to work a little better anyway. I will post explanations next to the pictures where needed.
This is what the rim looks like that runs around the lake. You wouldn't know this huge lake exists just on the other side of that little hill.
Our little friend again
The bike or walking trail on top of the rim.
This is a look at the lake which has grass on the perimeter
This is what a lot of Florida looks like around here. Fields with cows
Around the lake is a "ditch" which can carry boats parked at houses and rv parks to the lake
He must have been following me waiting for me to drop as I rode my bike on the rim.
Another frequent site is truck loads of oranges
This is an over pass to cross from one side of the highway to the other but it's not for people but for cows.
This alligator was swimming in the ditch around the rim
This area is known for the variety of birds that inhabit the area
This snake was in the vacant lot next to our 5er at the rv park. I haven't researched it yet to see what kind of snake it is but I assume they are all poisonous and I don't like to mess with them.
