More recently, I went to the amazing South Florida Museum, compliments of our friend Cathy, and learned all about atlatls.

I like that.)amarkonmywallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09677008352624269050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12006171.post-45038562164655116362010-01-27T06:16:30.107-05:002010-01-27T06:16:30.107-05:002 years?!

I was going to say to leave the dark spot and say it's an Indian gator....but the spot would be above the eyes.

When I lived in Greenleaf I used to watch them. <br /><br />I went to a seminar on fruit trees at our extension office last week, He touched on blueberries and I thought about you.
