Alligator Spring

I have snorkeled here. Today, it was just hand over the side.

Gum Springs.

I saw someone in one of the houses at the spring head.  Then I heard a female voice, and after a bit, a male.  I hoped one would come out so I could ask if I could swim. Hopefuly the lady, who I have spoke with before.  No one came out.

Over the side pics

I paddled away from the spring, put the kayak in some vegetation that may or not be part of Ms. Smith's property, and snorkeled in.
