THE Random Chat Thread - AKA "The RCT" - No shirt or shoes required - Open 24 / 7

Looks like a fine day shaping up as the last 2 loads of wood chips are being delivered this morning.

Going to start bucking up the trees that were taken down in the rear laneway at 7am this morning.
Have to make a little noise to get a couple on their way that decided to set up camp this weekend on the trail that runs along the property.
Now either they have a wonderful digestive system- or they're probably using our property for a toilet.
Either way the dude had been drinking and it was better got them to stay put for the night.
Not a bad egg, just a case of entitlement it seems.

The transient boater is different story, comes up his boat-drink in hand, and a burr under the collar.
Just can't reason with a drunk when they have that surly gene that comes out when they consume.
I just basically stated that go back to the boat or have the next conversation with a black and white.

Public/park lands but there's a "No Camping" policy.
Signage would be a good thing-but that would make more sense.


Well it seems that Max just decided to say good morning with his echoing voice.:dontknow:
 

Good morning rook, ARC, pepper and ?? Who ever else is awake !!
 

Morning Bart.
 

Good morning Bill
 

Things are getting out of control down here.....for only the second time in my life I was shut out of my own town. Since the keys has reopened we have had record numbers of people( infected ) come to the keys. Not a single parking spot anywhere. If you don't get up now and go where your planning to go you will have no chance of enjoying any ocean access. Every touron is here to catch lobster right now. The season is incredible so far with record numbers of lobsters being caught. Traffic is off the chain crazy and road rage is everywhere. Battled my way to a swim hole to hunt....cops were there with a sign that said full capacity. He said are you gonna go in and park ? I said yes....all of a sudden he says go ahead there's room....I said forget it I don't want to be in there !! They were actually keeping people from parking on the road and setting up camp on the side of US1. These tourists will come down with 15 people and 3 dogs and set up tents and chairs kayaks and fishing gear and they bring there own coolers full of food. They don't stay at a hotel or even buy food or spend any money when there here....there here to take take and take. They catch all the small fish, dont obey any fishing laws, and leave piles of trash and shi* all over the side of the road. They block access to the ocean with there fuc**ng tents cars and trash. It has become a crisis among locals....we make a living showing tourists the keys....it seems like every Corona virus idiot has cometo the keys. This whole social distance thing is stupid if no one else gives a shi*. I will go hunt the family compound today. The compound property sits across US1 from one of the survivor camps from the 1733 fleet. That coincidence was not by chance when properties were being considered. I also found out that the previous owner was a rich party girl. She had an on going party house with lots of people always staying on property. So I'll hunt the old conch house ruins and hit the swim beach and see if anyone lost jewelry at these parties. Not even gonna try to get out on the water by boat.....to many idiots out there !! There will be several deaths this weekend from boat accidents and car crashes....not enough room for this many people in the keys....we are being over run....its one thing to reopen.....quite another to allow all time record crowds to pile in to the keys at the height of a pandemic.....total lunacy !!
 

Morning AARC And bart
 

Hopefully one of these tourons will deposit his big multi thousand dollar man-ring in the sand down here this weekend !! I'll sneak out on a weekday and go get the fresh drops....with this many people there has to be fresh drops !!
 

Well, thor it comes. 5D3FDC7D-5420-4FC6-B8AC-EA9067DE49A8.webp another hot one. Beats the alternative.
 

Already in the high 80s here rook !! I sweat walking to the mailbox and back.
 

I saw a good one yesterday.....boat comes ripping in from the ocean. He going 45 50 mph. Some how he misses the last channel marker and smashes this thing up on dry land at 50 !! I'm no more than 100 feet away and didn't even miss a swing of the coil. They were screaming at me for help.....I looked over at them and asked if any one was hurt....no, no were fine we need help. I turned my back and left them sitting high and dry !! I said ill be right back with help and got in my car and left !!

Bart, what the hell is going on in the Florida Keys with the tourists these days?! Believe me, I realize how serious a problem COVID-19 is and has been, but why are people acting so irrationally? The US has a serious health emergency going on right now, but for some reason the general public just isn't taking it seriously.

Jim, I'm thinking people are just thinking that they can behave anyway they want to now that the risk of contracting COVID here in Ontario is so low. Have you always had these types of boater & camper problems or does it seem to be exceptionally bad this year?

I don't like the direction that our world is going in now. It's almost like it's every man for themselves and to hell with everyone else, we're just going to do whatever we want! :BangHead:
 

Good morning ARC, Jim, Bart, Bill & rook! :wave:
 

Ain't it funny? Some will just take and take and take. No rules, no laws, no need to worry. But....when they finally "stub their toe". Its all MOMMY!!!! SOMEBODY HELP ME!!!

And....woe be to those who refuse to help because they will be forever damned by the..........."stubee". Their demands unmet, unheeded, even ignored! Poor babies! Hope there weren't any hungry sharks. :tongue3:
 

Whadi.....dave.....your both 100% right !!
