Ride Home this morning.

While attending Signalman A school in the Orlando Florida i had a weekend off and decided to try out the base lake for some fishing. You could rent the fishing equipment from the base bait store. Got down to the lake and was surprised no one else was around fishing. Walked on out on a wood pier that was just about set at water level. Started catching some really nice bass. Hooked into a really nice fish and fought it for some time. Got it up close to the pier and out of the blue the water exploded. Next thing i know am sharing the four foot pier with about a five foot alligator. It was not happy to see me standing there. Took off running. Ended up paying for the gear rented. First and last dealing with a beast of that nature. Scared was a under statement.

I thought that sounded like the famous SEALs 'Weissmuller Training Facilty' Lake WTF ;)
