Subject: RE: BS: Curious about ..Florida's Isle of Capri
That part of FL has its own beauty, but, IMHO, is an over-built disaster waiting to happen. I wouldn move there as a long term proposition, but if its a job for a year or so, you might enjoy the experience. I used to work for an agriclural group that held its annual convention at the Marco Island Marriott every summer. In one of those moments when you'ld givr your left, er, appendage, for a camera, but didn't have one, I drove by the local McDonalds about 2:00 one afternoon and spied a dozen or more buzzards perched on the roof top. I imagined that the corporate folks would pay handsomely for the only print and negative of such a photo. Shgort summary: not a bad place to visit, but I don't think I wopuld want to live there. If you decide to go, pay attention to hurricane warnings.
