So you would definitely not want to live there. While I'm at it, I'd like to say the same about Florida (how's that, Dana? ;-) >> Thanks for the comment, Jackie. Dana, if I remember correctly, lives in the northern area of the state near Jacksonville). My house in Miami is about 30 minutes from the southern entrance to Everglades National Park. I'm 20 blocks east of Krome Avenue. Fortunately, the sprawl stops there - nuttin' but 'gators, skeeters, 'n other creepy crawlies. I did the swamp slog hiking trip once - one girl felt a "water snake" slither past her leg. I saw one sitting on a stump. Course, the birdlife is great. sandy kramer And, yes, I was noticing similarities between Tex and Fla viz critters and heat HOWEVER....we have ooodles of nice places to paddle: ocean, rivers, lakes. sandy kramer who is preparing to joing the Paradise Paddlers (Key Largo paddling club) on a Labor-Day-weekend jaunt on the Santa Fe (Florida - NW of Gainesville) River. I hope to be camping at Ginnie Springs and do some tubing as well as paddling. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - All postings copyright the author and not to be reproduced/forwarded outside PaddleWise without author's permission Submissions: PaddleWise_at_PaddleWise.net Subscriptions: PaddleWise-request_at_PaddleWise.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************Received on Tue Aug 22 2000 - 04:48:03 PDT
