3 Oceans, 1 Kayak, and a Bicycle. Go East, Then North. Key West, FL. November 27, 2010 — johnthoreson. Happy Thanksgiving from Bradenton (just south of Tampa)! When I was in San Francisco, I visited my buddy Mark. As it turns out, his mom and grandma live in Bradenton. When he heard I was going to be in Florida around Thanksgiving, he said I should come over. I liked that idea – good company and pumpkin pie can’t be beat. I made it here just in time. Texas, Part II. Or were they just mellow? I still like...

3 Oceans, 1 Kayak, and a Bicycle. Go East, Then North. Key West, FL. November 17, 2010 — johnthoreson. I pulled into town today under sunny skies, moderate headwinds, and on a busy highway with no shoulder. I’d avoid Hwy 26 if you can, but not the people you meet down here.

Cheney for Congress? | Whipple Road
https://dswhipple.wordpress.com/2012/05/08/cheney-for-congress

Dumb and Dumber and Dumbest.
