Floriduh

I've been to Florida before, but only for a couple trade shows that were in Orlando, right in the middle of the state. This time I was excited to check out the perimeter and cruise the entire coastline to the Keys, and see what this Gulf of Mexico was all about.

This dude was about 10' away from me, thinking about having me for lunch. I was thinking about turning him into a pair of loafers.

I headed down along the Keys, and biked to the edge of an abandoned stretch of highway. The color of the water down here is so insanely cool.

I met this chill dude in Key West. He literally CAN'T BE BOTHERED.  ...so much he doesn't even care about misspelled words. I wonder if this will be me in the future?

Weird sculpture here, even the dude laying down is part of it.  It's not me, you creeps.

I watched the famous Catman put on a show with his trained circus cats.  He talks like Mr Bean and is totally crazy, but in a great way.

I went in planning to take off my clothes and hang out with naked supermodels, but in reality it was handful of middle age nudists drinking beer.

I wanted to get a photo at the most southern point of the USA, but there was a line of 30 people to take their selfies!  I just did a drive-by shooting instead.

This was the coolest camping spot I've had so far, right on the beach.  This will be hard to top.

Now that I've made it all the way down the tip of the USA, it's all up from here.
