Is the panhandle really part of Florida? I mean, I know they drew the border that way, but...

Time to spin the big "Florida Vacation Wheel" and take bets on how zippyt's time off ends.
  • Eaten by alligator.
  • Red tide bloom ruins vacation.
  • Eaten by shark.
  • Tropical depression and endless rains.
  • Eaten by serial killer.
  • Surprise: unexpected major hurricane!
  • Eaten by Skunk Ape.
  • Jellyfish sting. Don't listen to the residents: The pee myth is something we tell all tourists for fun.
  • Stops at and becomes entranced by the Enterprise Alabama Boll Weevil Monument.
  • Takes a wrong turn on I-10, ends up in Jacksonville and spends the rest of his life pondering "what is that smell?"
  • Follows billboards to Ron Jon's Surf Shop, wonders what the hell is so special about it.
  • Falls in love with the area and never leaves. Finds an abandoned trailer and makes a living with a metal detector and crab traps.

Don't get much red tide up there in the handle.
Pee does work better than nothing, but it is best to keep a container of vinegar in your first aid kit instead. (a spritzer bottle is best)
Sharks don't eat... they just taste.

Sharks take big tastes, then.

You forgot one kitsune ...

MrsZippyT gets a visit from Aunt Flo and all of the chocolate melted from the ungodly heat of the Florida Summer.

Florida Croc

Last time I went down to the Everglades I took the below pic of an American Crocodile. South Florida is the only place where they still live.
