This was the biggest grasshopper that I have ever seen. It was about 4-5" long and it's body was as big around as a cigar. Joe saw it from the car as we were driving down a trail. We found a new place to explore today. It's a gravel road that goes through the heart of the Everglades. Very pretty and a little scary. There are paths to walk on too, but I really didn't want to get out of the car. Bears and Panthers have been spotted along those trails. The funny thing is that I had to come all the way to Florida to get a good picture of a young buck. It was strange seeing the deer in the same area as the alligators. Check out my photo gallery to see some of the pictures from our adventure.

Those pictures are so good! Jax loved looking at them. All I can think of when I see that grasshopper is the nasty crickets in Texas!
