Carson got very close to several Manatees:

Most of these great sunsets shots are from JB's. These shots were taken about 15 minutes apart. One focuses on the lamp and the other on the clouds (I think it is better on the lamp, since the clouds are more about the sunset colors, but oh well):

Hanging with Tom & Nah in Gainesville, FL!

It was awesome to have a few drinks with the Gainesville gang. Though you can't really tell from the whacked-out faces Nah was making, good times were had by all!

There are more Gville pics on Flickr, of course...

Peace, Nah Nah



NAH! Cheers

Images of Savannah, GA, our third stop

We hit Savannah, Georgia after leaving Bmore and we loved it! It's a beautiful town and a great place to party.

(I'm WAY behind in getting photos up here, I'm just going to toss up some of my favorites and be done with it. You can always check out more at my Flickr site. Also, I have finished selecting and touching up pics from our next few stops -- Gainesville and Ocala, FL -- so they'll be up soon! Also, I've given a look to my pics from the Keys and they're fantastic, can't wait to post them, too!)

Savannah, GA

This BBQ joint, The Georgia Pig, wasn't anywhere near Savannah, about one and a half hours south on US 17 (aka The Coastal Highway and a fantastic drive), but it was AWESOME!
