Florida
I just got back from a week in Florida. Plenty of grouper, shrimp and I got to fly my 9' frog kite. I broke down and got a 8' rokkaku kite decorated as a giant American flag. Pretty impressive. It will go about a half a mile high on the 4th of July here in Limestone. It will at least impress the cows that surround my house. My farmer neighbor says that when I fly kites is the only time his heifers ever look up. I haven't been to Florida in quite a few years and some things I saw were quite puzzling. Why are there tanning beds at the beach? What do they use all those four wheel drive SUV's for and why are there not slews of convertibles? Last but not least, why is all the produce in the supermarkets from California?
