Florida: an addendum

I take it back Sea Shell.  I'm sorry I said those things.  I really did enjoy visiting you.  And in retrospect, I think I might just bring my family.  Well, that's if I ever find myself in Naples without a place to stay, which I hope doesn't happen anytime soon.  But, I did love your authenticity, your simplicity and even your subtle charm.  Perhaps I'll see you around.  I'll be sure to wave hi the next time I'm swerving along 41 trying to get out of the way of the blue hairs on my way to Tin City.  Thanks Sea Shell.



I can't tell if I was to critical of Naples.  I can't remember now if I just thought all those nasty things about the richey-richey aspect of the city, or actually wrote it.  No matter, I'm here to set the record straight: it's a complicated town.  Well, to me at least.  I actually believe that nasty thing I just wrote.  But I also believe that I thoroughly enjoy my visits.  Sure, family plays a part in that.  But it's so nice and clean and warm and full of sandy public beaches in a mostly warmish Gulf.  I can see the allure.  I really can.  But man, I'd never want to live there.
