Subject: RE: Question about Lakes of Pontchartrain song From: leeneia Date: 10 Jun 20 - 04:03 PM Hi, Joe. The Everglades are one of my favorite places. The Shark Valley is real, but it's very subtle. Nonetheless, it makes a big difference to the amount of water flowing out of Lake Okechobee (sp) to the sea. I've visited the Anhinga Trail a few times and have always seen alligators there. It's nice to be on a boardwalk, and it's nice to know they are hibernating in winter, but if I had a child, I would keep that child right next to me. One day the DH and I were on a trail in a wildlife refuge in Mississippi when we heard a rapid scuttling and a giant splash ahead of us. It must have been an alligator, who sensed us and feared us, but we decided to stay put a good while and let it get well away. They say an alligator will not attack an adult human, but I don't blame the guy in the song for not taking the chance. |

Subject: RE: Question about Lakes of Pontchartrain song From: leeneia Date: 12 Jun 20 - 06:49 PM I thought it would be fun to write down the tune I know, but I can't figure out the timing. 4/4, 3/4, and 6/8 have all hit the rocks. |
