  The story I saw they were hauling them to fwc or somewhere for "disposal". If they were not dead then, by now I'm sure they are. Gator bait.
  We have one more near freezing am and then we are 70's here- s fla I'm sure much better. This must have cleared out a bunch of them - and hopefully some of the anaconda/ boa snakes as well. Them things do some serious multiplying too.

  Finished our first Loop, halfway done with a second one, already planning our third time around.  It's not a shittty way to live.

  One of the locals told us a story about someone collecting iguana in the keys after a cold night.  Apparently Cubans, like many island inhabitants through the Caribbean, eat iguana. The guy was driving around picking up what I guess were good eating sized iguana. He was tossing them in his back seat.
  
  As he's driving some of them start to thaw and went crazy trying to escape.  They use their tail as a whip and these were apparently all large iguana so he was getting attacked.  Ended with him crashing the car. 
  
  It's unfortunate that they need to be killed off but they are not exactly great for the environment being an invasive species and all.

  The big Burmese python can have over a hundred eggs. That's hard to catch up with. They are killing deer, hogs and other animals food source so that's a real problem. Them dang lizards must know how to get the job too. I was taking some new ambulances down to palm beach and I was a little taken back. Central fla has the little lizards that eat a lot of bugs and such. I can deal with those...a lizard that can eat your cat is a bit more of a problem.

  @LaRea I think i mentioned this before but now since you have made multiple loops- start a you tube channel and get paid to boat- that's the way to live!

  @LaRea dang, I must’ve missed that. It’s still on my bucket list. I have some friends that also did it. They said it was a great experience. By coincidence I was in Emerald Isle, NC when they were passing through. Got to meet them for dinner in Swansboro when they were stopping for the evening.

  Do it!  Living on the boat is one of the best decisions we've ever made -- especially deciding to go now and work half-time instead of waiting until I fully retire.  
  
  Ras -- A YouTube channel would be fun, but I'll never be as good at producing videos as I am at engineering!
