Hey Derek,
As you know, I will be there. I was planning on hitting Merritt Island (been there several times) on Friday. Have you been to Ocala NF before? Merritt has a lot of flying blood suckers, but always see gators, manatee, dolphin and some odds and ends. [Plenty of anoles but no Florida anoles....ferel wildlife doesn't affect things, eh?]
Regards,
John
