Good Sunday Morning

Hello world

Just getting here since I went out for an early bike ride on No Name Key around 7am and didn't get back here until about 11:30 and was so hungry I had to make and eat some bacon and eggs first. Then the clean up and the usual delays with cats and such.

Anyway, it was a great ride with a strong wind blowing right at me for a while at the start. I'll post some pics tomorrow when I have a chance to wind down a little. No Name Key is interesting because it has residents but it doesn't have electricity, so everyone has to make their own power and no one really wants to be connected to the grid.

Ran across this interesting quote today on the off-grid.net website, about the island I live on:
"Nestled between Marathon and Key West, Big Pine, one of the widest islands in the Keys, has long been the haunt of hippies, fishermen, dope smugglers, equestrians, the working class and those choosing to forgo convention."

Yep, that's Big Pine Key alright.

Wishing everyone a day with no names needed.
