The Sporting Life
Yesterday on my way to see some key deer (I didn't see any), I took a wrong turn and drove down to a secluded beach. The wind was whipping at a steady 20 mph pretty much all day. So, I happened on some kiteboarders. I'd never seen kiteboarders in person and it was awesome. A young gal says to me, "You should try it. It's really fun!" I told her I was having fun watching, but on the way home I started thinking, "Why not? Why not break out of the box and try something completely different - maybe when Ben comes down to visit? Maybe I'll try kiteboarding." Well upon arriving home I'm anxious to try Rocky's bike. I'd just put a new tire on and I'm going to give it a spin - my first bike ride in many years. Not much later, while picking myself up out of the gravel, I reconsidered the young lady's generous offer to try kiteboarding.

ReplyDeleteDave suggested I suggest a tune to drive around the Keys with. First thing to come to mind is Springsteen's Ramrod! Goes - Come on come on little baby, come on come on little baby, lets go Ram rodding tonight!
My wife Anne has friend working in a restaraunt down there and I have a friend who owns a few homes on little torch key. Will get those locations for you. Also have a friend down there who has a pet panther that ate through walls in his house, you don't need that one.

Thanks on all counts. And, no thanks on the panther referral. I'm still getting used to these damn geckos.
