Ponte Vedra is literally right down the road from me.

There’s a lot of Hazzards here other than alligators

Florida is the lightning strike state capital of the US......there are sharks, water moccasins, rattle snakes, sinkholes, rip currents, giant roaches, the state bird is the mosquitoe, hurricanes and the tornadoes that hurricanes spawn, and the latest....MALARIA.

And let’s not forget the Senior drivers.......it’s not for everyone.

I have begun to consider that perhaps I’ll only move back to Florida when I can get there in an urn. If Florida ever really decides to do something about their alligator problem, I’ll consider it, but for now, they just give it lip service. These animals are not endangered anymore. Good intentions and all that, but seriously folks, it needs to be legal to kill an alligator again. At least until they’re under control.

You forgot the copperheads and the coral snakes.
