we try to pass on the gators too but they just keep coming, he catches them and moves them up the road about 5 miles but usually within a week there's 2 more here as we have 2 ponds and they usually like to have it to themselves so the smaller ones get pushed out and find the smaller pond in the back, I love all the hostas, I keep trying but they just don't make it. Everyone's place looks so peaceful.
