I'm stuffed. And we won't be seeing Trainer Bob any more. It's a good day.
Hello! You say you want to rub my belly? That's what Trainer Bob said, too.I hope you enjoyed these photos of this alligator that was hanging out at my local County Fair. Kids got to hold this guy on their lap and have their photos taken -- for a price, of course. I was able to get a couple pictures of the hard-working gator while he was on break. They kept the area pretty dark, so I was glad these images came out OK.
Here's a tip for holding an alligator that I learned from watching this successful enterprise. Hold the gator's mouth shut and tilt his head upward. They even had 5-year old kids holding this alligator that way!
I am only entering photo 1 in the challenge.
But I making my own little 2-part contest here.
Contest rules: Come up with captions for these photos. I will leave a comment for each photo. Put your caption under the reply for the photo it belongs to. I will choose my favorite and give 1 SBD to one winner for each caption. The contest will be closed when the winners of the overall PhotoChallenge 29 are posted. Have fun!

That's a good one! I bet that gator liked the low light levels -- better for napping! ; )

Sorry, @merej99. Your entries got in after the SteemitPhotoChallenge winners had been announced, which was my deadline. Thanks for your creative captions. You captured a side of that gator that nobody else saw. Aww, what the heck. It's my contest and I can do what I want. Check your wallet.

That's so sweet @haphard-hstead you really didn't need to do that. I think I found the alligator post because of either Discord chat or someone else I follow resteemed it. . :D Honestly, I hadn't even looked at the deadline. It just looked like fun to play along.
