Took the Suncoast Trolley up north from St. Pete's Beach to John's Pass. A "historic fishing village" that now seems to be focused on selling tee-shirts, candles, and craft jewelry (as well as smoked alligator and other treats). Couple of interesting eating spots, we chose Sculley's and had some good fish, but it was pretty chilly (since it's been CHILLY outside).

Walked a bit on the boardwalk afterwards and found a shop, sadly closed, selling Obama Bobbleheads, so, yes, they are "here" and here's one of them:

Nile Notes of a Howadji (1992), now online

My first book, Nile Notes of a Howadji, is now 18 and it was time to set it free on the world. I recently gave Smithsonian Libraries permission to digitize the work, and so, via the Internet Archive, here you go world. Book page at Internet Archive.
