Goodbye Tennessee, hello Florida
December 3, 2011 3 Comments
It’s that time of year. The time of year when I ditch my relatives at Christmas and head with Troy to Florida to kayak the warm swamps, bays and rivers of southern Florida. We have new kayaks and will be heading out a week from today for a two-week stint.
Cades Cove in winter: lovely, but cold. Also, you can hear the strains of Deliverance.
Last year, Troy tried to feed me to the alligators in his quest to kill me:
The rare and elusive Jean in a mangrove tunnel in the Everglades
This year, we’ll be doing some open ocean kayaking. Most likely he’ll feed me to the sharks. In case he finally succeeds, it was nice knowing you all.
It's waiting for me. Or maybe just all the old people. It is Florida.
Have a fun time! You can’t get eaten by the alligators, if you have survived all the crazy dogs for this long you think a stupid old alligator could get you??? You’d have that thing leashed up and getting spayed or neutered before it opened it’s jaws.
Awesome. I’m going to Florida, too, next week. Not to the Everglades, though.
Have fun and enjoy the weather. I will be battling the alligators, crocodiles and sharks, none of which will attack lawyers out of professional courtesy.
