Things of interest seen by Ohio boy in Florida:
    Sunburned and hand painted scooters. Employee parking for BAT cabs. Orange one was nice!


Great shrimp Tacos here.....


Outside Publix grocers.

 
These blind birds apparently wander around until they fall in a hole. Here is one holed, the other still searching. Sad.



Wanted to try a Tom Cruise MI ramp jump here - but blocked by tourists.


Fortunately I didn't say anything out loud about this.......the owner was sitting with his wife right behind me!

Couple of tourists who've apparently never seen a shiny highrise elevator. Popped out in a fancy lawyer's office. The secretary just laughed. Tourists. If the door is open, my daughter and I go exploring.


Maybe better than the ones I see over Tim Horton's in Ohio.


Biggest dadgum seagull I've ever seen.


Handsome Kymco 300 in downtown St Petersburg


Favorite place for lunch is Woody's Waterfront Restaurant (gets a little rowdy after sundown)
Stock photo....
We ate there once with sea water splashing in the door, lapping over our flip flops during a tropical storm....the water comes over the sea wall with no trouble into the covered seating area. Hilarious. Great clams!


Our visit last week. (the weather channel showed them under water again 2 weeks ago...we watched it in Ohio)You cannot eat closer to the ocean than Woody's (unless you're in a boat)....your elbow hangs over the water.


Moon setting over the Gulf before sunrise. Never seen the like....

Nice Stig, !! Some really good pictures, thanks.
I will be going to Myrtle Beach, next week.Visiting the MIL. Want to take the DT300, the Mrs. Is putting her foot down, not a chance!!! It's only about 650 miles from NJ, sure would be a hell of a ride. I'll see what kind of pics I can muster up
