The Compound is open to anyone wishing to "donate" their vehicle to Palm Bay/Brevard county. They have regular "donation" patrols that will gladly take your ATV,UTV or whatever they find you on.....no questions asked or tolerated. Best to stay away from there......

River Ranch is 40,000 acres with access to Lake Kissimee, and an active association who is constantly making improvements.



Where is the lake access? I have yet to find it...

After visiting both RR and SE  I decided to buy out at RR. Better security and maintainence, different topography (woods,plains,open brush...) and the people are friendlier. I belong to an ATV club and most of the members own at SE, while getting into SE to ride is easier (still have to have a member with you and it doesn't cost $100.00 for a guest pass) I do like the monitored access and the fire truck protection RR has. I'm getting to know more of my campsite neighbors at RR and riding more of the trails there so its becoming "home " to me. I like SE as it is closer to me, but the extra distance to RR is well worth it in my opinion. Just my .02.....

A Blonde returnes home after a day at the office, only to find that her house had been robbed. She frantically calls the police and waits in the front steps for their arrival. The call is assigned to the closest patrol car, a K9 unit, and he pulls up to the house in less than five minutes. The officer unloads his K9 partner and proceeds up the walkway. Upon seeing the pair approach the Blonde moans
"Isn't this just great.  First my house gets ransacked and then the police send a blind officer!!!"

 

A natural Blonde was trying to impress her boyfriend and decided to put a difficult jigsaw puzzle together unaided. After several fruitless,frustrating hours she calls her boyfriend crying....

"Please come over and help me put this puzzle together...I just can't do it!!!"

The boyfriend soon arrives and asks
"Honey what's wrong? What kind of puzzle is it?"

She leads him to the living room saying...

"It's a tiger, but I can't figure out how the pieces fit together...they're all the same!!!"

Gently the boyfriend sits the Blonde down on the sofa and says...
"Honey calm down and lets put all the Frosted Flakes back in the box...."

 

ON BEING A SOUTHERNER:
Only a Southerner knows the difference between a hissie fit and a
conniption fit, and that you don't "HAVE" them, you "PITCH" them.
_____
Only a Southerner knows how many fish, collard greens, turnip greens,
peasbeans, etc., make up "a mess."
_____
Only a Southerner can show or point out to you the general direction of
"over yonder."
_____
Only a Southerner knows exactly how long "directly" is--as in: "Going to
town, be back directly."
_____
Even Southern babies know that "Gimme some sugar" is not a request for the
white, granular sweet substance that sits in a pretty little bowl in the
middle of the table.
_____
All Southerners know exactly when "by and by" is. They might not use the
term, but they know the concept well.
_____
Only a Southerner knows instinctively that the best gesture of solace for a
neighbor who's got trouble is a plate of hot fried chicken and a big bowl
of cold potato salad. If the neighbor's trouble is a real crisis, they also
know to add a large banana puddin'!
_____
Only Southerners grow up knowing the difference between "right near" and "a
right far piece." They also know that "just down the road" can be 1 mile or
20.
_____
Only a Southerner, both knows and understands, the difference between a
redneck, a good ol' boy, and po' white trash.
_____
No true Southerner would ever assume that the car with the flashing turn
signal is actually going to make a turn.
_____
A Southerner knows that "fixin" can be used as a noun, a verb, or an
adverb.
_____
Only Southerners make friends while standing in lines. We don't do
"queues," we do "lines"; and when we're "in line," we talk to everybody!
_____
Put 100 Southerners in a room and half of them will discover they're
related, even if only by marriage.
_____
Southerners never refer to one person as "ya'll."
_____
Southerners know grits come from corn and how to eat them.
_____
Every Southerner knows tomatoes with eggs, bacon, grits, and coffee are
perfectly wonderful; that red eye gravy is also a breakfast food; and that
fried green tomatoes are not a breakfast food.
_____
When you hear someone say, "Well, I caught myself lookin'," you know you
are in the presence of a genuine Southerner!
_____
Only true Southerners say "sweet tea" and "sweet milk." Sweet tea indicates
the need for sugar and lots of it -- we do not like our tea unsweetened.
"Sweet milk" means you don't want buttermilk.
_____
And a true Southerner knows you don't scream obscenities at little old
ladies who drive 30 MPH on the freeway. You just say, "Bless her heart" and
go your own way.
_____
To those of you who're still a little embarrassed by your Southerness: Take
two tent revivals and a dose of sausage gravy and call me in the morning.
Bless your heart!
_____
And to those of you who are still having a hard time understanding all this
Southern stuff, bless your hearts, I hear they are fixin' to have classes
on Southernness as a second language!
_____
And for those that are not from the South but have lived here for a long
time, ya'll need a sign to hang on ya'lls front porch that reads: "I ain't
from the South but I got here as fast as I could."
_____
Bless your hearts, ya'll have a blessed day
