No rabies shot fore the bear? Is s/he still on Mark? Maybe s/he island hopped and that's the one that was seen on Welch?

I haven't seen bear or any deer in quite a while, just ravenous cats!

I can confirm he had 5 cats on board, as well as a hyper-ventilating wife...She was ready to ditch island life after that ride.Steve- lucky for you the cheapest mainland house she found that she liked was $5mil. Better not plan on retiring soon. That's a LOT of tiki boat runs!

that would require year round around the clock tiki boat runs... would have to convert them to air boats!

I have wondered if you ever considered moving to the mainland or had a plan to do so? It seems so hard for you to leave every year.

Island life is different. You'd be amazed at how many islanders have "permanent" home within 15 minutes drive of their mainland dock. Some can see their mainland home from their island residence.

It's always very hard to leave...we love it there, love the privacy... I'd like to retire at some point, and buying mainland would prevent me from doing that ...ever!
