Um, no thanks.

Canadian bacon isn't REALLY bacon... it's ham.

No problem. @chrisb01 will spring for lunch AND Diva's round trip airfare. ;)
 
We used to live in Bradenton, FL. Still have family there. And son in Riverview.

Cap, if you guys ever head to Riverview, let me know. I lived there before we bought our home in Plant City, so it would be easy for us to meet in person.

chrisb, I PM'd you my phone number. Next time I head that way, I'd love to meet you at Panera.

We've had trouble with constrictors (boas, pythons, and anacondas) for years now. It started with people letting their pet snakes loose when they got too big, too mean, or too expensive to care for. They do yearly hunts, but don't really get that many, and the main place that was having difficulty, the Everglades, was restricted. I just read where this year, they've hired professionals to go in, and kill as many of them off, as they can.

They are decimating the native bird population, native wild boar, native deer, even the alligators are not safe from them. They're disrupting the whole eco-system, and food chain, especially in the Everglades.

Big problems with iguanas also. Pretty funny winter 2yrs ago I think it was it got so cold in Florida the iguanas were falling out of trees and people were rescuing them... They are a invasive species causing all sorts of problems .
