There must be a grilled otter and onion taco stand somewhere in
Austin that's open on Mother's day. Any suggestions?


Great story. No suggestions but it was a good read.


Thank you, and the others for the compliment. I got an "A" in
Creative writing class. I didn't know where to post the otter
story, so I worked it into a food related post. That really was my
thought process for those 8-10 seconds. There was that second or two
where I thought, "Should I be concerned?". I did have some food
with me.

I did some further research on it and notified the Otter Tracker guy
at Texas Parks and Wildlife Department with the exact location on a
Google Maps satellite image.


I've seen them here in Illinois. I just looked and it seems in the
late 70's they estimated just a couple hundred were around. Now
there's over 10,000. They've been sighted in Burhham Harbor so
they're certainly not shy. I think they're kinda cute myself.
