I am trying to find a map that shows where the Mason-Dixon Line runs and/or shows how the states were separated in the civil war.

I’ve recently moved to central Florida, and I was wondering what safety precautions to take when canoeing rivers like the Sante Fe. I’m not overly freaked out about the gators and water moccasins, but I’d like to know exactly what to expect, and how to prepare (short of taking a shotgun with me lol).
I’ll probably take a spare cell phone with me, in an airtight pouch in one of my pockets, and a utility knife and TONS of bug spray. Also, I’ll be going for 3-4 hours at a time, if that matters.
Any other suggestions?

I can’t help but think after reading all the conservadrivel that maybe the civil war was a bad idea.
I mean really. The more I see how divided we are, the more I would like to see us divided. This makes no sense. What is the point of having “one nation” when it’s really not. It’s two or three nations coexisting with one another.
I say we divvy up the states and let the conservatives go their own way. No more tax money from the rich blue states for their nonsense. No more childish nonsense from the few lousy Republicans left in congress.
Maybe it’s time to pack it in, call it a day, and split this rock down the middle?
So my question is, if we could vote on dividing up the country between conservatives and liberals, would you vote yes or no?
I like to consider myself an independent, but I know a liability when I see one. Conservatives as a constituency are a liability to not only this country, but the world. I’d vote yes in a heartbeat.
