Schooners in St. Augustine, Florida has THE best shrimp that you have ever put in your mouth. Now, I must say, rumor has it that the cook from another great Shrimp-feeding restaurant in the area, both Barnacle Bills and Osteen’s was “supposed” to have begun Schooners. I don’t know. And, all [...]

The Little Barn
December 26th, 2009 · Comments Off
My dad is quite a carpenter. His age (89) is the only hindrance of his excellent work. On this barn, I cut the doors out and he was able to easily hang them on the barn. The sawing part was less than perfect, but they sure do swing good.

Today, outside of The Loop Restaurant, there was a fine example of a sports car

Took the Kid’s Bikes
December 11th, 2009 · Comments Off
It is not the fault of the kids that those bums are bums. In their hurry to leave the property, they left behind three kid’s bikes. For the sake of the kids, I piled those bikes in my truck and hauled them over to where Darryl and Darrel said they moved.
When I [...]

December 11th, 2009 · Comments Off
Darryl dropped by to ask me if I knew where the people who stole the aluminum moved. I did not but he drew me a visual map with his hands and soon I knew exactly where they were located. It appears they rented a place just behind Darryl and Darrel’s brother, Darrill, [...]

Spittoon
December 10th, 2009 · Comments Off
Is “spittoon” even a word? I don’t know but.. Darryl, the brother of Darrel walked by my rental the day after the aluminum had been taken off of the shed. I was showing a friend of mine the rental. She was dressed in Sunday best clothes. I was in my old work [...]

Darryl and Darrel
December 8th, 2009 · Comments Off
The rental is located in a rural area. Around it are lots and lots of woods. I love the land itself. The trees are old century oaks and several are huge.
There are only a handful of homes around my rentals. At the dead end of the road there is an [...]
