Yes it's true they really have alligators in the deserts of Colorado! We stopped by on our recent trip with D's students to the college's retreat-like campus in the mountains.
So I have to tell you that Maya and Sage did actually hold a wee 3 foot alligator...where are the photos?...well it was one of those 'you have to buy our photos for $20 deals'...so you'll just have to take my word for it...(stingy parents)
So the real deal with these guys is that they were originally brought in to clean the tanks of the Tilapia fish that are farmed here (and which is still the main business at the reptile park) and now they breed them there also.
No this isn't our new luggage!

The kids had fun watching all the tumbleweeds blowing around and were wondering how the owner of this house was going to get out!
Yes we own our very own tumbleweed now!
Desert light. I don't have photos but we also visited some natural hot springs with the students and got to bob around in the hot water while the sun cast it's golden light on the mountains.....sooo relaxing...even the kids chilled out!
