Otherwise entitled: “Only in Key West”. I don’t think I’ve ever seen such a range of …er …sizes. And on that note (omg can you believe that last pic?) can I direct your attention to the Ninth Carnival of Radical Feminists which has picked up one of my (not so radical) posts…

Groover quite rightly says that if he’d set me up blogging on his phone with wireless keypad before now he’d have never got me to bed. But the genie is now well and truly out of the bottle now and I sit here ensconsed at the little table in our roadside inn at a place [...]
I know it seems harsh but that is what we have taken to calling Miss Neverlost, the know-it-all voice from the GPS thingy in our hire car. Especially when she doesn’t have the roads we want to go to or takes us to some weird other road of the same name. We love it when [...]

The hire car, with no snow tires, slipped and slid and bogged down in the snow. Getting the suitcases up the very steep [...]
It was 7pm. Dark. Cold. And we’re snug in a cabin in snowy Goshen. So what do Groover, The Artist (my bro) and I decide to do for New Year’s Eve? Correct! We decide to jump in the car and drive into Times Square to watch the ball drop for the 100th time. Just three [...]
You might have noticed Hugamuga’s comment in the sidebar. That’s my son. Also known as The Orchid Hunter. However I’ve decided to adhere to his online preference and call him by his online handle. Hugamuga came from a friend of his in primary school – I’m not sure if this friend had looked up the [...]
