Steve's "Otter Of The Week"! .....by Karl E. Hayes
The Otter has served well from the "broiling" deserts of the Middle East to the "frozen" expanses of the Antarctic and the Arctic. That so many Otters have survived these "harsh" environments to this day is a testament to the Otter's design.
Alas, Murphy's Law always comes into factor, and after a long day at work, who would expect to "expire" in the safe confines of one's residence along with some valued friends?
