Ok maybe it's just me, but DANG it peeves me people think rules don't apply to them.
I'll be the first to admit I tend to follow them almost to a fault. And I may Obsess over people who don't . I'm trying very hard as I get older to mind my own business , follow the rules, and let those who implemented the rules take the task of enforcing them.
But today was a
"See something , say something" moment for me.
While walking my dogs today at the Fort behind the 300 loop in the grassy area following the creek I observed what I find to be "those " people. A man and an older teen boy were
Fishing near the dam area. The older male was INSIDE the fence line. You know the one they constructed all over the properties and added massive warning signs to stay away from the water due to alligators and snakes? Because a young
Boy lost his life?? As
I got closer I can see another man also on the inside of fence right next to the dam. First guy is poking at something on the waters edge. His young companion is trying to take a picture.
Now here's where it gets ridiculous! A family canoeing along is speaking to them and paddles over to the edge as well and let's the small child (guessing 3-4 years) who is sitting in the bottom in the middle of the canoe get up and move to the front of the canoe for a good look at whatever! And now teen boy is climbing
Over fence as well.
I was flabbergasted!
I took the cut off into 300 to find a CM and one drove by on a garbage collection truck right then. I waved him over and told him what was going on. He was furious and thanked me and
Zoomed in that direction.
Am I nuts? Overly cautious? Perhaps, but even though this is my first FW stay I feel fiercely protective over it and the need for idiots not to ruin it for the rest of us.
