    As we departed Hollywood this morning we could not have imagined the concentration of wealth we would see. By the time we arrived at Murrelle’s Marina in Lantana, FL we must have passed several billion dollars worth of real estate and boats. If anyone tells you this country is going broke then just […]

    Sadly I must report that the bus system in Miami is not nearly as entertaining as the last bus to Marathon was. This is probably due to the fact that this was a daylight ride and with the exception of one empty half pint of cheap whiskey under the seat there does not

    Today we had dedicated to spending at the beach. We found these two young men in our spot but a few more shovels full of took care of this problem. Actually we had the day fairly well planned or I should say the Admiral had planned it for us. The weather was perfect.
