After a few years I can now pet her haed and sit beside her on land and even pick her up in the water..
Let me know what u think!

Cool, but why are you swimming with a gator.
I trust your wearing a gator proof Jock, I know I would be, but then again mine would be a meal not a snack.
Cheers

Why am I smiming with a gotor ... theres many answers.. an obvious reason is the shear beauty of sharing the water with such an animal .. but in the context of that picture.. public awarness... talk to the public for 20 minutes about em and make sure they never forget it!
I aint a crocodile lol

I think she is beautiful. Not enough to get me in the water with her. lol, but she does have a sweet smile on that face. Kinda looks like she is in love.
Great pic Dom, glad you were enjoying yourself so much. I guess it would be a thrill to swim with a gator, just not a thrill I'd go for any time soon.
And yup, you could use some sports bars. lol. j/k. You look great too. Remember Size isn't everything. My hubby is about 5' 5" and 140 lbs, used to be 125 before he quick smoking. Rather skinny but he has a black belt in Karate. He's a sem-pie. (an instructor for those who don't know much about karate) He teaches kata's, nunchukoos, and technique. Also helps the shie-an with classes. shie-an is the big kahonna of his kubado karate. lol. Sorry don't know how to spell have those karate terms. lol. Anyway, my point is size isn't everything. And that goes for you too Brian. lol
