I am surely not a swimmer, but after the recent tragic flooding in Texas, it got me and my roommate wondering…

    After riding out Katrina for two weeks flooded in, I found myself wondering where all the gators were, and very thankful that nobody was attacked by one (to my knowledge, at least in my area)…

    Cuz we’re definitely in a gator area…

      Never been there before. But there are videos of Fukushima debris floes. Looks like a nightmare, regardless of your swimming level.

        During Katrina flooding, if you didn’t have a boat or a tractor, you’d have to walk like 2 miles through flood water, in the swamps, to even get to a store.

        Hell, people were even bathing in the flood waters!

        It was only after the flood mostly subsided, that I found myself wondering, how lucky everyone was to not be attacked by gators!
