      <![CDATA[<img src ="http://blog.outsidesupply.com/travel/images/IMG_7415.jpg" align ="right" hspace="5" vspace="5" alt="Key Deer Sign">Some time ago on our last trip to the Florida Keys I concocted an elaborate conspiracy involving an endangered species and a speed trap. We drove through Deer Key. Elaborate speed controls are in place advising that SPEED KILLS DEER and also every zone is 35MPG. huge fences surround the street. We looked and watched and even gazed in hopes of catching a glimpse of Key Deer. Unfortunately none were to be found. So that is where the conspiracy theory came in.

However on this trip I was amazed to see either a token new species or there is actually a real short endagered species of deer that is only found in the Florida Keys.

Here are the pics of the Deer that I saw. It was a really small buck. It only had 1 antler but looked like it would have been a 10 point. I have joked with many people about my theory of these deer while working at <a href="http://www.outsidesupply.com">Outside Supply</a>, should I call them all back? LOL

This deer was really cool. It was almost like a miniature deer. A buck should be or is expected to be much bigger. 

Either way the speed trap either has a mascot or it is not a speed trap at all, and they are protecting a really cool unique species of deer.

I think the latter, now.

By the way we used a <a href="http://www.outsidesupply.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=78&HS=1">300 Watt True Sine Wave Inverter</a> to charge our Canon 40D camera and toshiba laptop on this trip.]]>

We went to the Florida Keys in late January and Early February 2008. We stopped at the Turtle hospital in Marathon. This place rocks!!!!


They are really making a difference. This is no canned tour. It is a direct in your face operation that makes a difference.

This was the best $15.00 tour I think I have ever been on. While we were there my Daughter and I witnessed a turtle coming in to the hospital. It was being attacked by birds and was rescued by tourist.

My daughter was in awe of the operation and the staff and volunteers really went out of there way to help her feel welcome.

She also left with an amzing desire to see more turtles and also an unquenchable desire to say Bubble Butt.

Bubble Butt is a condition in sea turtles caused by trauma from boat strikes. An air pocket forms causing the turtle to have well a bubble butt. This bubble adds floatation and misforms the shell.

Just a plug for our products. We charged our camera battery and laptop on the <a href="http://www.outsidesupply.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=78&HS=1">Go Power 300 Watt True Sine Wave Power Inverter</a> on this trip. It really makes digital Photography on trips a dream.
