This is a before and after of Lettuce Lake, the inlet of water that comes in from the Hillsborough River. The top picture was taken April 2006. The bottom is in the same location and was taken a few days ago Nov 2016. We obviously were in a drought then, and from over pumping of the Hillsborough River that led to the lower water levels. There were areas of the river that resembled a stream rather then a river 100 feet wide. There were many areas of the swamp you could get to then and almost walk across the river. I haven't seen it this low since then, I think they learned their lesson.

I just visited one of my favorite parks and the large pond there has become a marsh. I'm glad to see the reverse is true here. It looks like a lovely place.

Thought that the title was telling us about your 'behaviour' when you still was a baby, Alex, ☺ .
But you've depicted in this mini collage the present and former situation of Lettuce Lake very well. Think you'll agree with me that the 'bottom situation' is preferable.
Good contribution again, my friend!

It is good to know that the bottom one is the later photo. Nice captures that make a good comparison.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
