The problem is that Orlando's woods are closer to a tropical jungle, IMO. What do you think?
Absolutely!! I loved your descriptive message and will have to admit you had me LMAO! Not an appropriate response, but having grown up down there you were just so right on that it cracked me up
And Ill tell ya what at least those rattlers give you a little bit of warning its the cottonmouths and copperheads that dont (other than maybe their smell) and theyre very aggressive. When I get nostalgic (which isnt often esp due to years of memories) I look at this site:

Add the assorted and quite large spiders, fire ants, gators, and mosquitos the size of birds, bobcats and other wildlife, and its pretty safe to say that most woody areas down there especially those by water arent very friendly places to hang out. And that, combined with the nature of the search, is part of why I totally admire all of you who were out there trying to find little Caylee and Jennifer. You are truly heros!!
I know the families up here in NC truly need Tim and TES to try to find their loved ones, and the time of year is right (the cold has the snakes sleeping and has thinned out the vegetation in the woods). So I respect the fact theyre coming up here to help, but at the same time Im heartbroken that the search down there is ending for now. I do believe that Caylee will be found I just wish the timing was right so that it could have happened now
In times like these its inspirational to see people who are willing to take time out of their lives and put aside their fears and comfort to look for those who are missing. Your selfless actions and kind hearts help renew faith in humanity - something that can be strained in light of the horrible things going on around us and the pure evil of people like KC.
So, from the bottom of my heart I thank each and every one of you
