Random fun

Perambulating, parking or putting around the Southernmost streets of the Southernmost island (Hawaii is really the southernmost state and could easily tell Key West to bugger off but perhaps they are still not as proud to be a US citizen state as we would like them to be) one sees a variety of variation. Fine dining? Perhaps a rooster roaming nearby--
 
Toish and froish he wandereth, seemingly unfettered by bounderies...  
but then turned back apparently suffering from a lack of interest in the world outside of his little domain (not unlike many humans) or perhaps  
he was afraid of becoming someone's fricassee.  There definitely didn't seem any parental obligation to hasten back to (not on his part anyway). 
Zipping down the street I pause to view a cement wall around a yard that gives new meaning to to the term "private fence". I am not sure what they are afraid of... perhaps roosters.
 Petite lizards abound and fleetly flee past your feet  
Having lost my way, I looked helplessly around and saw this: plenty of directions but no help for where I was, sadly.  

A strange fowl in the yard of the courthouse feasting and feasting, like the Whos on Roast beast. 
(maybe a white pelican???)
And perhaps if you want to bring the arctic to the tropics, this is the perfect way to do it. 
Had I ventured on Duval at night, wilder pictures would have been mine for the taking. But that would just be too easy!

Go Mr. Grayson!


Fighting the good fight is Mr Grayson of Florida. I received this e-mail from his campaign today and hope you can take the time to look it over and sign the letter if you are so moved:

  • Bear Valley, University Hills, Woodbury and Montbello will remain open 48 hours per week
  • Schlessman will be reduced from 40 to 36 hours per week, but will retain 4 hours of service on Sunday
  • Hampden and Byers will go from 40 to 32 hours of service per week
  • The Central Library will lose 4 hours of service on Saturday mornings. Central will be open on both Saturdays and Sundays from 1 - 5 p.m.

Lost word #2

Some cities have to work overtime to phalerate their hum drum highways and byways. Key West's lush tropics make human trimmings look tiresome, tired, even tedious don't you think?
