One story an thing that I recall is taking her out bluegill fish on a family vacay at lake Seminole one year.

We were staying in a Ga state park cabin an had my boat beach there own the shore. Ever morning we would come out to find a small (4ft) gator laying under the bow. You could just step over him an go about your business. This particular morning the mother an I had beat the rest of the family out an about an she want to go catch some fish to get ahead start on the day. So to stay close we trolled straight out in front of the cabin to a rather large bed of fish an our " pet " gator followed. He lay there wanting an fish that we didn't ( no we didn't fed him). While catching several gills all of a sudden she hung something much larger than a gill but it had managed to entangle her into the thick hydrylla. Excited as I cld be I assisted her in getting the creature free from the grass. An on its way to the boat as she raise the alligator......gar to the boat she truly expressed her feelings for her love of the actual gators that lay around as in her mind that 2 and a half foot gar was a gator. So as quickly as she could she managed to flip that fish right out the other side. Now as I realized what it was an had never boated one myself I fumbled around trying to catch it but that had given it time to cut the line. An as she realized what all was happing the laughter began.

That is one of the many wonderful moments I have spent with my mom. Whether by boat or land I cherish all the moments I have an continue to have with my wonderful mother.
