Day 179
St Petersburg FL

We like it here. The weather is lovely and so far the city has been great. South of Tampa gets a little dumpy, but not too bad. Downtown Tampa was very clean and now St. Petersburg has to show it's stuff. The downtown is lively and people are out in full force. I can see why people move here.

We score a sweet parking spot right next to all the action. It's Saturday and things are bustling all around us. Street cafes are full of patrons, and there is a craft fair going on down by the water. Although we have no money to spend it is still fun to just walk through the crowd and see what is going on. North of us a few blocks is the annual Seafood Festival. This is a happening place. Seriously, we should consider living here. A few miles away is another pharmaceutical plant that is the same company I use to work for. It just so happens they are looking for an operations supervisor. I wonder if I would qualify?

St. Pete can get checked off the list. Time to continue on and see more stuff. We head west bound and end up at a place called Trader's Village. It's a mish mosh of buildings brought into a community place to have them on display.  It's a natural environment complete with botanical gardens on the grounds. Maybe we can finally see some alligators.

Oh I won't molest any gators. Uh-uh, not me.
The gator molestation sign is a bit distracting. Let's focus on what else is here. Old stuff.

My favorite stuff ever is to stop by old cars and look at the way things use to be. This 1925 model T sits inside an old time garage surrounded by parts from the same age. This is what I want my garage to look like.

Our day gets wrapped up as the stroll takes us back across the channel to the parking lot. Downtown St. Pete is a sweet place. We will be back.
