A Newer Mightier World Full of manly pride and friendship

Old Florida

As a native Floridian who has moved on to more industrial, colder pastures, I sometimes have a tough time convincing people that Florida is more than Disney World and the Beach. There's a tremendous amount of lost biodiversity in Florida, a state that was, up until recently, more swamp than society.

My friend Debbie forwarded me some old time pictures (in a PDF available here) of the old days. Rob has a good sense of what Florida is... a hundred different ways to die at the hands of animals.
