Went out on the river w/ my brother and some kayaks – it was super cool to be so intimate w/ nature… very close to the water..  I did almost get mauled by a gator that was cruising by.  That part was quite frightening!!  We did however also get to be in the middle of a patch of Manatees (where the river meets the spring), and that was rather scary too; they would come up for air, and there was a possibility that one tip you over.  It kind of reminded me of some kind of Universal Studios water ride – only much, much more real (“real” can be more scary, but thousands times more exhilarating).  Survivor – YEA!
