Not urban legend, apparently: last time we were at the Loxahatchee we learned that an onboard dog had become gator food only a few days before. And Sandy, I think, had "something" disturb her boat on the Estero not long ago when she had one of her dogs aboard. Right, S? Cats have better sense than to get on any boat I'm paddling, so I don't have to worry. e Elaine Harmon - eilidh_at_dc.seflin.org - eharmon_at_cs.miami.edu *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************Received on Tue Sep 21 1999 - 20:36:07 PDT
