Actually, as I hear it from my parents (diehard FSU alums), gators are a
favorite dish among Seminoles.  And they make such pretty belts!
 
On a shell-related note, where are some good shelling/diving spots in
PANAMA?  I will be leaving soon for Honduras and now my husband just got a
job in Panama, closing down U.S. bases prior to the turnover of the Canal.
He's a dive instructor and wants to know where shellers go in Panama and
neighboring countries.
 
Incidentally, I will have to leave Conch-L for a while, but if anyone is
interested in exchange and/or keeping in touch, here is my address:

My email isn't active yet but should be after 1 Dec:

It's been great sharing and learning and laughing with y'all.
