I love JESUS! I'm a 7th-generation Florida native, dyed-in-the-wool Southron belle. I just recently dusted off my genealogy notes and, thanks to a long-lost relative, nearly doubled the details. We started home schooling when only 'outlaws' did it and still enjoy a daily quest for knowledge. These days, the family spends a lot of time birding, butterflying, spending as much time in 'the woods' as possible while they're still here.
The Tampa Bay Hotel served as headquarters for U.S. military leaders, including Col. Theodore Roosevelt, during the Spanish-American War in 1898. Some 30,000 troops were stationed in the area.
I SOOOOO love UT. I can see from a distance at certain places on the Crosstown... I have to remind myself not to transfix too long on it or I might crash... but I'm tempted. My MIL graduated from there in the 30's and when she was alive I took her to bi-annual meetings with the elderly folk... it was a blast.
