    Thought you'd like to know that we saw a wild turkey in the north Florida wilderness. Plenty of pelicans, sandpipers, egrets, and other beach-y fowl. We had chance encounters with dune mice, horseshoe crabs, rascally squirrels, vultures, and a small turtle.

    Kudos to the central Florida panther spotting.

    .
    If you see Wild Turkey...that probably means that turkey hunting season is over...damn smart birds...why Ben Franklin wanted them as the national symbol...not that fish thief.

    Be careful around the beach mice....several are critically endangered species.

    Yes, they do....yes, they do. Panther=extra cool points...the pigs, however, are not cool. They are non-native, and they have a very nasty habit of destroying native plants....for some reason they always seem to single out the rare ones.

    The Dirty South....a natural place.


    yeah, that panther... been down here 25 years and it is only the 2nd time I have seen one... very exciting.

    Didn't know about the pigs though... have seen some really huge ones in the wild...

    Based on the rarity of the Florida Panther....you are a lucky one.

    Is this because I said we were going to catch blue crabs and eat them?

    I didn't mean to offend you (or anyone else), Rose. I have plenty of family and friends who are vegetarians and/or vegans. One aunt owned a veggie restaurant in Oxford, MS, for six years. I get where you're coming from.

    If it disgusts you or bothers, I'll try not to bring it up any more. Sorry if I unknowingly riled you up. You'll probably be glad to know that we weren't really successful with the blue crab grab. Lots of rice, corn, and okra in our gumbo, but zero crab. ;)

    .

    I am going to keep this short Rhino. This has Absolutely NOTHING to do with anything you or anyone else on this thread has said. I feel that the Southern Thread is kind of like a "safe haven" for other southerners.

    I do however catch flack from others on ocassion. I can be very "odd" at times in my belief system. And certainly - it's MY belief system. I try to keep it to myself - so as not to offend. However - it is a part of who I am - and it's going to come out when I express my thoughts and opinions. Which I don't want to do.

    With all of that said -Pearl Jam- is finally coming to see us. That's a very cool thing! Heard "Low Light" in the grocery store today! I normally hear songs from "Ten." This was An actual "Yield Song!" Everyone must be feeling the excitement!!!! Take care - everyone on this thread.

    You sir, are hardcore. I hope she is persuaded.

    Makes me antsy about not going to the Florida shows...but we're almost set for both MSGs. That should be worth waiting for.

    You're not odd, Rose. Or if you are, it's no more than any (or all) of us can be at times.

    We're glad to have you around so that we can get to know you before the tour. Keep posting and keep rocking out to Low Light in the grocery aisles. (Were you in a Publix? I've noticed they sometimes play decent music in their Tallahassee stores.)

    Should we start a countdown to West Palm a la Johnny Cash's 25 Minutes to Go?
    Well, I'm working extra days and I'm saving big bucks
    With 22 days left to go

    I'm working on her and I even found someone that had an extra pair of floor seats for the show, so now I just need the approval. Since she can't make it to WPB, I'm using that as an excuse to why we need to go to the Tampa show too :)
