very powerful, very funky-smelling musk. Fortunately, only one drop hit me.

larger than the first two digits of my ring finger. The chickens fought over it for

not planned.

Florida panhandle. The cow is there for security reasons.

Fernandina Beach.
9 medium They must have been doing at least 300 kts. when
they came through the surf.
8 medium Why, sure it's expensive. But when you're
dealing in a tourism-driven market environment with a short-duration seasonal sales
distribution, you have to recover your overhead with a limited unit volume of product.
7 medium Beaver pond built adjacent to a culvert running
beneath the highway. Near Aline, Georgia but close to almost nothing

11attacks. Decatur, Georgia.
