Seth's Gator


My son Seth wrote from Louisiana:
So, if you don’t know about the alligator I’ll tell you the story. We were fishing yesterday and our investigator’s son yells out ”there’s a gator”. We laughed because we were in part of the bayou where you never see one. Well sure enough inside one of the culverts he was chillin’. So, we grabbed a fishing pole and put shrimp and ham on the line. Well, the first time he grabbed and broke the fishing pole so we set up another one. Finally he bit it and we set the hook. We scooped him out with a net and jumped on his back and held him by his head. He started death rolling. Man he was strong but, we got him in finally, and tied his mouth, shoved him in a box and took him home. We fed him this morning. He eats hot dogs and fish. His name is Rex. He’s like a dinosaur. He was crawling around our apartment last night and I didn’t sleep too much. It’s scary at night with those things.lol
