Off to taco school.  No, just kidding.  This is the Taco Bus serving up an amazingly delicious mexican fare.  Located on the corner of Hillsborough Ave and Floribraska, this is a hole in the wall restaurant that cannot be passed up.  All food is made fresh daily and being soooo crowded, I mean fresh.  Think that the establishment was featured in DDD's (Diners Drive Ins Dives).  When in Tampa do as the Tampaites do, go to Taco Bus.

Hello to all this on 2013 President's week.  I have President Lincoln on my mind as I wathced a documentary on his assasination narrated by Tom Hanks.  The presentation made me realize what a pivotal role President Lincoln played in moving forward our great nation.  He unified people, hence the above photo which is of Ybor City in the Tampa area of Florida.  As you will notice is mimics New Orleans, and there are parades there, one known as the Gasparrila night parade---a good time will be had by all.  I mainly want to comment that this city unified the cuban population that migrated here in the early 1900's to find political freedom.  If ever in Tampa, please visit this city which also features one of the oldest cable car lines. 

This is a great restaurant, there is one in South Tampa and St. Pete.  It features tapas, which I call individual servings---you order a variety to complete your meal.  Last night, 2/14, was quite hectic, lots of people out on the road.  The continual news of the economy makes me wonder if there is or ever was a downturn, as there was none to be seen last night.  Restaurant was filled to capacity and people were in great spirts, happy that is. 

Love at first sight?  Yes.  I always tell those who question love and I always say 'you will know it when you see it.'  Happy Valentine's Day to all. 

This is the Salvadore Dali museum in St. Petersburg Florida.  A great place to visit.

A Great Place to Visit When in Tampa

Starting this blog today, 02/13/2013.  Blogs will be social in nature, but may include various topics.  Since today is the day before Valentine's Day, the topic will be:  How did you meet your significant other.  My story is simple.  I was with another when my future partner asked to use my cell phone, of course I obliged.  Well, s/he called their own cell phone to retrieve my number electronically.  I recieved an invite to dinner the next night and the rest is history.  Anyone that clever deserves a first date!
