That third pic down, I could swear I have been there before. I was catching crawfish as a kid, it was a family reunion or gathering.

I haven't seen to many crawfish in Florida, put we got to have them some where, cause you can catch bass on them sometimes.

But that was Lake Spier and Lake Baldwin is right across the street In Orlando

Best part is I do a lot of work for him, as he owns a few homes he's renting out, so he said I can bring the boat over a go fishing anytime I want.

Them fruit trees need fertilizer and I need to make sure they get done, so I can go get more next year too, they were good but the tree needs some help to keep it up as there getting old, his trees were loaded but every thing except theorangeswas a little small, that and the fact we didn't get rain everyday like usual in the summer time

skeeter's don't bother me much unless I were the gator live, then I shoot up with DDT LOL, the placeI was at was at the end of a long trip and as soon as I stepped in the grass beside the road to get a grip on the situation, I was covered and being ate up, had my hand busy at the time watering the grass and couldn't slap at them dammmmmmmmmmmmm.

I walked 4 feet away and they were gone, but I had on my bug junk on that night, you cut a gator after shooting itto bleed it, you get a basket ball sized group of skeeter's wanting that blood, you better keep your mouth shut and hope you don't suck to many up your nose.

No it's the heat that kills you here and it can kill you in a heart beat, just playing never mine working your butt off, the last time I got hit bad was playing golf, had a heat index of 104 and going into the 11th hole it's hammering on me hard, good thing we stopped after the 9th at the club house grabbed a beer, gator aid and a lemon-aid, threw the beer down, followed by the gator-aid and was sipping onmy big lemon aid, 10th didn't bother me to bad but the next hole Iwas feeling the heat get to me and the liquid wasn't quite there yet, but I was having a great game for me, I was about to pass out so I couldn't over swing it and was making good shots after I teed off on 18 I cramped up big time almost hit the ground, another good sign you come to close to dieing and the guys said they pick my ball up , I said hell no, I can finely break a 100 with 2 shots and a good putt for a 99.

Hey, but don't try this at home, if I didn't hydrate before the 10th hole, I could have died.

Wasn't the first time the heat hit me so I knew what to watch for, I sweat heavy, so if I'm not wiping the sweat out of my eyes every few minutes, I know I'm in trouble and start cooling my body down.

Now if we were walking, I would have not made it to the 9th.
