It's about our children / societal choices and their consequences (Fitzsimmons Cartoon)
Precious. Kids are such a joy, especially those of other people
This Kid looked like she was grown, in her eyes. Her parents said it was OK for me to snap a photo. Now that I look at it I see it shows one of my favorite things about kids discovering their digits, and that they can control them. When they still think they are the only ones to have them.
Trying to smile at this timely cartoon - Margulies on Zimmerman still being armed
No-one cares about this critter at the pool and a few other shots from today
This iguana, and his/her family members hang out with the humans and nobody cares
The look of the handle bar against the sky as I came out of the pool intrigued me
Tonight's sunset

Never enough photos of a beautiful sunset - throwing in a boat full of fishermen
Our time is coming to an end. This was the sunset tonight at the seven mile bridge in Marathon - the middle Keys - in the Florida Keys.
Come with me to Key West - It's hot - but bearable. I had an hour and a half :) today
Took my cousin to the airport. Had a little time to kill. These are a few snaps along the way.
Key West is such a fun / laid back / picturesque/ easy to move in town.
I wish I could give any and all who see this a simple hour and a half to spend there.
Anyone getting to Key West will pass Baby's Coffee. After all, there is only one Road. It is even called US One.
Diversity and acceptance of it are a big deal in Key West - I like this display of it
Have no idea why I uploaded it - I guess I liked it

Roosters crow where ever we go. They are the symbol and love object of Key West
There is a tree, too hard to depict because of it's size and beauty. It all but totally covers the street in front of the Hemingway house. It's the one shot I got, and it does not do it justice
The sign at the door made me smile
Modest Strategy for action in Syria - as revealed by Andy Borowitz/ even he can't find humor
WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Attempting to quell criticism of his proposal for a limited military mission in Syria, President Obama floated a more modest strategy today, saying that any U.S. action in Syria would have “no objective whatsoever.”
“Let me be clear,” he said in an interview on CNN. “Our goal will not be to effect régime change, or alter the balance of power in Syria, or bring the civil war there to an end. We will simply do something random there for one or two days and then leave.”
“I want to reassure our allies and the people of Syria that what we are about to undertake, if we undertake it at all, will have no purpose or goal,” he said. “This is consistent with U.S. foreign policy of the past.”
While Mr. Obama clearly hoped that his proposal of a brief and pointless intervention in Syria would reassure the international community, it immediately drew howls of protest from U.S. allies, who argued that two days was too open-ended a timeframe for such a mission.
That criticism led White House spokesman Jay Carney to brief reporters later in the day, arguing that the President was willing to scale down the U.S. mission to “twenty-four hours, thirty-six tops.”
“It may take twenty-four hours, but it could also take twelve,” Mr. Carney said.
“Maybe we get in there, take a look around, and get out right away. But however long it takes, one thing will not change: this mission will have no point. The President is resolute about that.

Ha! I'm in this one. So naturally I did not take it :)
It's rare that I'm in a picture...
On a boat ride to Pigeon Key a passenger took this of me and emailed it to me later (I had offered to send a specific one to her and then this came back to me )
