I remember my scuba instructor commented on why you carried a knife
when you dove. He said you carried a knife for when you confronted a
shark. I said there is no way a diver is going to take on a shark with
a diving knife. He said "oh, no you don't go after the shark, you stab
your buddy and swim like hell."
>From time to time, I've seen a FL panther cross trail on my early
morning ride. I assume it is the same one since they control a large
territory. Once, he/she paused and looked at me and then went on into
the woods. It was a feeling of wonder to see such a magnificent animal.
Now you want to talk about something, lets talk about crossing streams
or going into lakes for a drink in "gator country." ;-)
