Greg, I was thinking of the more inland courses. Then again, maybe you
were too.

There are plenty of 'gators inland as long as there is some water
around, and there's a lot of that in Florida. They are not salt water
critters although they're OK with brackish.


There was a 12 footer in Sanibel when I lived there and he hung out at
the beach across the street from my house (between the Hilton, now
Sanibel inn and the Tortuga Beach Club)
The gulf was no problem from him. That was also the gator that ate ice
cream and hot dogs at the Dairy Queen. They would send Bird Westal out
to get him and take him back over to the Ding Dong preserve. Sanibel
was a "no kill, no relocate off the island" alligator place in those
days.


It was all good fun until a few years ago when he ate a real estate
woman. He is a suitcase now.


We all know that rednecks, not gators, are indigenous to south Florida
and that the interlopers should be rounded up and shot. :)


'Crackers' are indigenous to Florida. Rednecks are from Georgia, home of all that beautiful, red,
Georgia clay.

Leave it to Krause to start up with the insults and derogatory remarks.


I gave him the benefit of the doubt. He may not have realized just how derogatory the name is.


Wait a minute!
Wasn't it you who refered to Scotsmen as "boys in plaid skirts"?
Pot kettle black

If I saw some boys in plaid skirts, I might have referred to them as
such. What does that have to do with Scottsmen?

===

The area in and around Orlando has *many* small lakes and ponds and
just about everyone has a resident gator. At certain times of the
year they get lonely and start wandering around. That's when the
trouble starts.

They are natural, instinctive hunters and can lay in wait motionless
for long periods of time with just their eyes out of the water. My
brother-in-law north of Tampa is on a water hazard pond. I sometimes
amuse myself by trying to spot the alligator. If you take your eyes
off him for a minute and then look back, he'll have moved a little
closer while you weren't watching.

Gentlemen, Gentlemen......

You don't have to be just "Scottish" to wear a kilt. I probably won't
(no need to) wear one, but kilts were found all over the British
isles.

here's a list of part of my kilt wearing qualifications in ancestry...

Price (English)
Cordell (English/Welsh)
Hyatt (English)
McKinney (Irish)
Graham (Scot)
Davies (Dafydd) (Welsh)

I could rightfully and proudly wear a kilt from any part of the
British Isles.

Eh, who knows, I might do that sometime, but.... not today
