Tree Gators...???

Things that don't fit anywhere else...

Steve got it right. I have those things all over my shop in George West and have seen a couple close to a foot long.

Not to hijack, but if you want to see a bunch of deer up close, drive to Sunrise Beach on Lake LBJ. There are literally hundreds of deer roaming that subdivision area. I'll bet no one even attempts a garden or flower bed. We drove thru there last weekend and were amazed. The population needs to be thinned out as lots of deer on the fringe looked in bad shape. But these deer are so tame and used to the traffic, we could stop the car 10 feet from the deer and they would ignore us. Saw two 10 points, racks still covered in velvet. It got to be a joke with us, "Look--do you see the deer?"
Still graced with two eyes and ten fingers (due in no small part to luck!).

Just when you think a problem is solved, an uglier result replaces it.

just a quick semi-related "tease"....

if you love to hunt deer pulllease come hunting in central missouri. there are so many deer here driving after dark gets very dangerous especially in the fall. insurance costs from vehicle accidents involving deer are very high. you're supposed to hit the deer and then there is no deductible. if you crash from avoiding you have to pay deductible because there is no proof a deer was involved. geesh.

in missouri EVERYONE gets a deer! :D
take mine!
