The water hole

One day, Grandma Thibodeaux sent her grandson, Little Tib, down to the water hole to get some water for cooking. As he was dipping the bucket in, he saw two big eyes looking back at him.

He dropped the bucket and hightailed it for Grandma's kitchen.

" Well, now, where's my bucket and where's my water?" Grandma asked him.

"I can't get any water from that water hole, Grandma", exclaimed Little Tib. "There's a BIG alligator down there!"

"Now don't mind that ol' alligator, Little Tib. He's been there for a few years now,

and he's never hurt no one. Why, he's probably as scared of you as you are of him."

"Well, Grandma," replied Little Tib, "if he's as scared of me as I am of him, then that water ain't fit to drink!"
