St. Augustine

Ah, blue skies, Barfy Burgers, Girls!!! (now, kids, date yourselves, and tell me what tv show that's from?)

Here I am, in jail...of course I'm kidding. It should be...here I am, in a powder magazine, that dates back to the 1600's, and was smelly and dark and required me to crawl through a two foot high small little tunnel thingie. I was not impressed. People sure were small four hundred years ago.

The last time I was down here, I saw this hotel but didn't have a camera so I was on a quest to find it. I find this to be the absolute pinnacle of ironic sleazy hotel signs - look closely to the left, and you will see a magic hat. BTW, it really is a flop house.


I just like the detail on this cannon. It's purely for show. It's a 50lb shot cannon, which is quite squat, and facing the wrong damn way on the fort, as well as facing a solid wall. Silly, really.



Now that's what I call a cannon. Note that this cannon IS facing the right way.




City street. Nothing witty here. Keep moving.





A little vineyard. The light was much better than you see here. Really.







I want this sign, I really do.
