Yeah, pretty good place...however, a long shallow paddle to go finally east or west...seems there's a good road system around that area...probably find a different place further south to put in...Red

My daughter found a dead dolphin on the bay beach from us, and we called game and fish. The Emerald Coast Wildlife people came out Monday and did tissue samples, and buried it. They said it was number 16 for the last 10 days or so. We have had numerous fish kills since Katrina, is there anything left? She also found a message in a bottle from Ohio, on our bay beach, after the storm. Amazing how it got from there to here. Down the Mississippi, into the Gulf, into the bay. Don't know if I want to eat much local fish!

Fear not, the 'powers that be' have been monitoring the waters and seafood stocks ever since the storms hit last summer. All is well and has been well for many months.http://www.fda.gov/bbs/topics/NEWS/2005/NEW01271.html


I am intrigued by the message in the bottle; how old was it? :lol:

Yesterday's Destin Log had a story of a Dolphin and Manatee found dead in the Bay near Eglin AFB property. No reports on cause of death. Manatee are on the endangered species list so I am sure biologists will be looking into the cause of death.
