That peeling tree is a gumbo limbo, We have them in the Keys as well. Folklore claims that the Calusa Indians boil about a half inch of the bark and drink it to counter the effects of the poisonwood tree, sort of like poison ivy

Good to know about the Boiling Hole; I'll have to set out at once because the back's been intractable lately. Glad to see that the tourism there hasn't throttled the wildlife. Keep sharing those encounters.

The Boiling hole looked like a swamp. Lol. Nobody wanted to get in it… or near it. 😂

Spiders and wasps and snakes ... OH MY!! Y'all got more guts than I do. I don't like the creepy crawlies. 🤐 OH BTW, How fun is it running around with @Sailboat Story? Ben is a hoot to watch.

Ben, Tambi and Molly are almost exactly like you see in their videos with the exception of they are very humble, honest, good people. They are quick to offer help. Ben is naturally funny but also has a very calming nature, where I tend to get more anxious he is a good influence. Don’t let Tambis quiet demeanor on camera fool you, she is very warm and welcoming. Molly and Ella have become inseparable bff’s. lol. They are very capable handling their boat and extremely smart with planning passages! They’ve become family to us. 😊

This fan doesn’t do bats! It was very interesting to see via video though.

If you want to mess with Ben tell him that his feet just seem abnormally large. Don't tell him I said anything about it, but multiple people have said the same thing. Just take it and run with it...maybe comment about the number of foot shots he starts his videos with....

Lol. He tends to read comments on my videos…. I was waiting to see if he would see this. 😂
