SITTING DOWN WITH THE TAX MAN

Hi friends!

Reef the fox here with your weekly “Reef’s Report.” I have quite the treat for you this week.

Monroe County

Reef The Fox

Reef is a red fox that was saved from a fur farm. He now lives in Key Largo with his human, Nicole Navarro.

Tax Collector Sam Steele visited over the weekend to sit down for an interview. He’s a pretty cool guy and I even let him take some photos with me.

Reef: I have to be honest, I wasn’t quite sure who you were.

You know, I don’t pay taxes or anything, but I saw your face pop up when I was scrolling my social media pages. I did a bit of research and the first article I came across mentioned that you were the youngest tax collector ever elected in Monroe County’s history and I must be blunt here: without that beard, you don’t even look old enough to pay taxes, let alone collect them. So, my first question is what moisturizer do you use?

I’m sure both men and women would be interested in obtaining that youthful glow.

Sam: I have had this beard for at least 10 years now because if I shave it, I probably couldn’t purchase a bottle of NyQuil without getting carded. And as far as what moisturizer I use, this is all natural, Reef. The youthful glow is just a benefit from paying $49.99 per year for an iPhone app.

Reef: Thankfully I don’t need to pay for an app, I am just plain adorable and people should be paying me for my photos! Next up, were you born and raised here in the Keys?
