Lots of great memories created there over the years. 26 minutes ago, Ceptorman said: Yea that motto wouldn’t look good on a sign entering the town. From `92 until `03 I was there in Central FL. There were "Sharkbite Capital of the World" signs on the main road going in north of the strand. The road they built the Gilleys on. Kind of like the Coppertone ads with the kid on the beach, except gal in the water with a fin above the waterline nearby! Signs posted on the beach, but people got bit every now and then, not nasty tiger sharks but mostly small ones. Bad thing was once a doctor on the beach had a hole blasted in him by lightning when clouds were far away. Terrible, his family was with him and he lived for a few minutes because it was cauterized. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to beleave but I would rather a shark bite if I had to pick, better chance of living. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WillyBob Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 mornin' folks feels like summer is here didn't cool off much last night. Mid 60's and a little overcast. Rain, spotty little T-storms, on the forecast.... for the next week. About time. looking forward to hearing the toads. After 50 years of living here, it still amazes me that amphibians can survive this climate. They're dormant for 9 months of the year. Dug into the ground. "Digging in" is a good trick in itself. Whip out a shovel and see how far/fast you get.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out here in the west anyone thinking of digging needs a jackhammer at a minmum, a backhoe attachment on a tractor or a backhoe itself would be better. Oh and some coffee a'course. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators dtel Posted July 11, 2019 Moderators Share Posted July 11, 2019 All these pesky regulations, you can't buy it from the feed stores anymore. If you could it would sure put a dent in local fireworks sales for the 4th and new years eve, it's a conspiracy by the fireworks people I tell ya. There forcing the locals to go all DIY. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
