Tammy will like that. I'm feeling better and if able, I will help with some of the cooking. We will have chicken and dumplings after the hike for sure.

Ya'll are down below the Decatur Gator line.
I might be up for that.
What time of year do the gators come out to play?
How'd they get here?
In 1979, 56 American alligators from Louisiana were dropped into remote areas of Wheeler National Wildlife Refuge as an effort to expand the range of the species, which at the time was listed as endangered and thought to be on the verge of extinction.
The full-grown alligators can, and did, make it through the colder north Alabama winters and a population of them has managed to hang on in the Tennessee River 37 years after the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service introduced the creatures.
Dwight Cooley, manager of the Wheeler refuge, said occasional gator sightings have been reported in the Tennessee River dating back to 1894, but many biologists believe those were pets that escaped or got released rather than indigenous animals.
"Some people have thought that they did occur naturally here on the Tennessee River, and some didn't, but the jury's kind of still out on that," Cooley said. "Back in the 1930s, '40s, '50s and even into the '60s a little bit you could buy baby alligators at almost any souvenir shop in Florida, and the thought was that's where a lot of the older sightings came from.
"But those 56 alligators that were released in 1979 are probably why we see alligators here along the Tennessee River today."
"...in Florida, she felt air conditioning for the first time, and it was cold and unnatural upon her skin."

These gator turtles are really bad out in the Sipsey area right now. They have been coming up into campsites looking for baby piglets, small doggies and extra small little children. They can weigh over 100 lbs and known to be fast as lightning. Beware at night camping near the creek they confuse snoring with pig sounds If has been reported that theses gator turtles think that extra small children taste like chicken

Don't forget about the Bigfoot sightings in the Sipsey wilderness area near Wolfpen hunters camp!
