Ok, so I took a little cross-state (Florida) trip this weekend and on my way from Fort Myers to Orlando I passed a sign that made me instantly think of Ron... So much so that I turned around and went back to take a picture. This was on US-17 just south of Wachula and just north of the Peace River (on the right if you're headed north). It's the welcome sign to a campground with the very Ron-esque name of the site on it. I have no idea what it means on there - but the fact that it's clearly there, apparently random, and in a totally different font and caps to make it stand out just made LOL at the thought of this place being the Ron-man's. Check it out - Camp Naco!  You'd think he'd hate camping now, but maybe this is Ron's way of making sure all of today's youngins don't have the same kind of experience he had at Wannaweep. Interestingly, it's located on the banks of the Peace River, who's toxin level I've always questioned anyway. LOL |

Ahh, that's sweet! ;D I was at Kennywood Park yesterday (an amusment park for those of you who've never heard of it). I was walking by the bumper cars... and I passed a gate that had KP in gold letters on it. I though of you guys! haha. I wish I would've taken a picture...  |

LOL - Well, actually it's not far from the area that's supposedly inhabited by the "Skunk Ape," a legendary big-foot type creature that smells really bad so... We also know Ron has been to the area before. This is on the west coast of Florida, so it's not remarkably far from where the Bebe's set up there off-shore hive in Queen Bebe and, I also suspect that this area is also where Low Budget takes place since a lot of those scenes show landscapes familiar to the Everglades, Okeechobee, Caloosahatchee, and Peace River watersheds. |

If you search the net there are actually more convincing, better photos of the Skunk Ape than Big Foot and there are a handfull of expeditioners who use the odor to track the creature (thus the good photos). But yes, the smell does usually drive average people and animals away. |
