I now understand that all of the Keys are protected (well, actually I don't
understand - but I comprehend).  A few years ago I caught a (slightly worn)
pair of Hammock Skippers on a roadside bush next to a dumpster, next to a
pile of old engine blocks, behind a gas station along the busy highway in
Key Largo.  Could I (Should I) have gotten a fine?  Should I (Could I) turn
myself in?
