Last weekend we visited my younger son, Adam Smith Palmer, and his wife. They live near Houston, Texas, where both are studying/working. On Labour Day, they took us to Brazos Bend State Park.
While there, we saw smallish alligator (we were told it was maybe 4-5 years old)

and tonnes of Golden Silk Spiders.



It's a nice park with a great hands-on programme for touching snakes and baby alligators, and for learning more about golden silk spiders.




Hey, I've been there with my Dad! He lives about 20 miles south just west of the Brazos.
Cheers,
