Some things you just can’t do in Tampa Bay
Like, surf: The Critical ‘I’ notes that some folks (midwesterners, mostly) think that just because the address here has “FL” near the end, and beaches are just moments away that we must be a bunch of surfers. HA! Tell ‘em CT: You can’t surf here. Oh well, at least we have the beaches and the sunshine.
In another post, CT laments the pulling of The Grand Prix of St. Petersburg from this year’s schedule. A road race has been run on and off (mostly off, it seems) for a dozen or so years in and around downtown St. Pete. I’ve been to a couple of them, and it’s cool to see the cars hauling ass around the same streets I drive. I hope somebody pulls this thing together once and for all, so the area has a world-class race. Daytona and Sebring are both nice places, and easy to get to from here, but it would be nice to have one in our backyard. Oh well, at least we have a hockey team.
