Gator grandma
Sitting back in the pontoon boat, Thomas Rutland takes a break from gazing at the cow pastures and orange groves of his boyhood summers. "Back when I was growing up, you couldn't see anything out here," he says, pointing past the glow of the DeSoto Speedway and the Manatee Dam. "That there is Bradenton. That's Sarasota. And that tower there is the water treatment plant." His mother interrupts. "Lay off the tower talk," says 71-year-old Ardith Rutland. "Let's go gator hunting."
