| Can you spot the gator? |

Daditude
The big old guy likes to say I have cattitude, but he can have his bouts of his own 'tude if I'm honest. So my bumbling boneheaded co-blogger and I recently put together what I thought was an entertaining post about trips he and mom made recently out to Lake Waccamaw and Green Swamp Preserve, a couple of beautiful places within an hour's drive from us. I made sure he put up some wonderful photos, added captions and I helped him plink out the best words and phrases. And then he woke up the other morning with a severe case of I don't like it-tude and immediately deleted the post we'd worked so hard on. I'm not sure what his problem was that day, but while he was at work I retrieved some of the photos we were going to use and put them here so you can at least enjoy them even if they don't include our original words. The gator is one they saw on the way to Lake Waccamaw, and was floating lazily in a swamp just off the side of the road. The carnivorous plants, including the fascinating Venus flytraps, are all over the place at Green Swamp, and are absolutely beautiful. Mr. Pissy Pants will likely give me a load of crap for posting this, but he'll have to get over it. Enjoy-

Cleo...dang it..and they say women can't make up their minds and are always changing things. Dad needs his 'tude adjusted seriously
These are wonderful photos. WOW the Venus fly trap dining is spectacular.

Yes, those are terrific photos and we like seeing where they out n’ about!
They are great photos and I am glad you ignored your dad and posted them. Tell him to leave the 'tude to you in future!
Cleo those are all super pictures and we see that gator floating along. We really enjoyed seeing the fly traps and those cool pitcher plants. Looks like a dangerous place for buggies. Tell that old guy to leave the posts to you from now on
Those are great shots. I can't see the gator, but that is fine by me.
I am so happy you shared these photos because they are great! I think I saw the gator, he was way in the background not the foreground.
I see the gator! And mom is still amazed that they have spread so far north. She was only used to seeing them in Florida really. I hate to tell you this Cleo, but she kinda likes gators, Oh, she's careful of them if she still comes across them but they are what they are, and mom enjoys them. When she and her husband when she had one, used to come out of the house, they'd both say, "look out for the alligators" because they were frequently in the drainage ditches at the end of the lawn. I LOVE the Venus Flytraps and Pitcher plants! LOVE them. Going to tell my other favorite brother about it. He lives in Charlotte.
Cleo..I hope my family will be able to read your blog. I sent the link to 4 of them...not Blogspot members. They don;t have to comment but I wanted them to see the fine job you did posting pictures.
We sure enjoyed seeing these pictures...so we're glad you went behind your dad's back and posted them anyways. :)
Mum really enjoyed the pictures. We did too.
Good thing that gator stayed in the water!!!!

those are some of the coolest flowers i have seen-we have none of that in Canada! i don't think!
Oh my word, look at those carnivorous plants! The best I can do is Jack-In-The-Pulpit, which looks a bit like a pitcher plant, and I've planted three in my garden. They are the most exotic thing that I've ever had. Cleo, you do what you like, but you two make a good team!
We see the gator! But to tell you the truth, we are more scared of those plants!!
These photos are so beautiful! And we spotted the gator!
I have my own moments like your dad, believe me. And I've never seen Venus fly-traps growing in the wild. They really are like they are from another planet.
On another note, I wanted to thank you for your support regarding Parker's death. You're quite right about the Cat Blogosphere being very supportive; helpful, informative and supportive. Thank you again.
Thank goodness you saved those photos and shared with us. I see the gator. I'm glad we live in a place where there are no gators. Everyone has to eat, but that poor fly.
Scooby is extra handsome in his tartan harness.
