I flew into Miami a few days early & to meet Bill Parks & spend a couple days in the Keys. What a blast. We managed to catch dinner (see pic of Bill with the beasties), & do some fishing down there. I also managed to swim with a manatee (very cool) & I also poked a 5' - 6' Morey eel in the eye with my lobster stick (very uncool). Not many fish caught though Bill did have a large shark on the line for around 2 hours before it broke the line. Then we drove up to Daytona on Thursday. I had one heck of a good time. It's always fun to talk to all the old friends as well as meeting the new ones. I didn't find anything I was looking for at the show. Of course everything I was looking for is pretty off the wall these days so I really wasn't expecting to find anything anyway. Though I did somehow pick up a couple of animals.
