The following pictures are what made the last week, and today, BUSY!
The trip to Havana was a pleasamt imterlude, and satisfied Marge's
curiosity about Klondike's former home. The work on the patio is minor,
but I look forward to a pleasnt summer that will include drinks and grilled
hamburgers on the outside. More to come.

Uh, Bob, ... about "at least a day there!"

It's not that big a place- while it's a working lab that you can, literally, put your hands in, it's also not unlike the smaller roadside attractions around in the days before interstates.

I usually stay about two hours, kid-at-heart that I am.

The two principal scientists, Jack and Anne Rudloe, have their open-door office off the small entrance lobby. They're often able to talk with you. In the Leon County Library I see thirteen "titles" by either Anne or Jack Rudloe; if you're so inclined, first try "The Living Dock at Panacea", by Jack Rudloe.

A few blocks away on the south side of US 98 is the Coastal Restaurant. I recommend it, so does Ashby Stiff, the Democrat newspaper's free-lance restaurant reviewer. It's open for lunch, I'm not sure about dinner.

Here's a local blog I've recently found that's worth reading-
