I've been finding tons of agatized coral in Florida, so I got a lapidary saw to cut them in half

And damn, some of them are REALLY cool. Lots of colors, some have druzy crystals, bubbles and rings and waves of color. So cool. I guess over tens of millions of years, this happens 😂🤷‍♂️

Still images don't do these justice! They sparkle like diamonds in the sun 🤙🌴

One of my favorite fossils in my collection - a dino footprint... Well, actually two of them 😁

Didn't realize when pulling that one up that there was one right underneath it. Two different dinosaurs, two slices of time, same rock.

Found in Massachusetts near Holyoke

[Homemade] I made mango snapper ceviche with some fish I caught

This is my daughter's favorite. I try to make it often because it's so damn good. Better (and fresher) than any ceviche you can buy, I guarantee it! 🤙🌴

[Homemade] I made Grouper Pho with a grouper I caught the other day.

It came out so good! My first time making this. I used Red Grouper, Fennel, Star Anise, Red Onion, Scallions, Thai Basil from the garden, and some limequats from my tree.

I will definitely be making this again! Next time I'll add some other seafood too. Shrimp, squid, etc.

Took my little sled off Clearwater today

About 35ish miles out. Decent spread! Got my PB red grouper @ 30"

Had a half dozen 30"+ mahi pull up to the boat but couldn't seal the deal 😭 as quick as they showed up, they were gone.

Tasty meats for days!

My Christmas Palm died from the frost we had in Feb

Now it's just a big wooden dildo.

I'd like to remove it and put a new Palm in its place.

Do you think if I hooked a strap to it and my truck and tried pulling it out of the ground that it would be easier than trying to dig the roots out by hand?!

Picked this up today off marketplace for $25!

It's an older kite, but it's in mint condition and looks like it was barely flown. Almost 10' span on it. My other one is only 7' so this should be fun on those windy days.

Can't wait to have it drag me down the beach 😂

My mixed collection of fossils

This is what you see right as you walk in my front door! 😁 I just took everything out to clean it and figured I'd take some pics!

I found everything in the case except for some of the native American stuff, the two Keichousaurus fossils on the far right side, and the three small Velociraptor teeth under the dinosaur footprint in the middle.

This is just some of the better stuff! 😁😍

Florida man heading up next week.. Anyone want to take me fishing?!

I always do shitty from the surf. And the head boats the last two year have been poop.

Anyone from Hatteras to Nags Head got room on their boat early next week (7/25-7/29) to take a Florida man fishing? I'll have all my gear, I don't get seasick or complain, and I will chip in on all expenses and anything else needed!

I just want to catch a couple quality fish so we have some meat for the week!

I take random redditors offshore down here near Clearwater often! I always post up to take a stranger fishing, and everyone I've met has been awesome. Would be cool if someone could return a favor! And if you're ever down in the Clearwater/Tampa area, I will take you offshore 100%!!

Reef Donkey pic for attention!

Thanks!
