WE COLLECT STATES LIKE OLD SHOES!

WEDNESDAY!  When we leave a place - WE LEAVE A PLACE!  New Orleans? History!  Louisiana? History!  Mississippi? History!  Alabama? History!  That's right, the Riding4Beer Magical Mystery Tour crossed four states today and now we're in Florida!  Actually, we're in Pensacola - home of Navy and Marine bases, and, and, and.....okay, that's pretty much it.  But where there are soldiers and sailors there are bars and strip clubs.  See, there is a surprisingly logical method to the madness that resides in our gray matter.

Speaking of madness, for part of the day today we rode along the gulf and in Biloxi, Mississippi we went to the George Ohr Museum.  Go ahead you art fools - ask us who George Ohr is!  He's the "Mad Potter of Biloxi"  He died about a hundred years ago, but is known as the father of modern art and once we saw his pottery we definitely wanted some of whatever he was smoking!  Folks, this guy was whacked!  But, other than weird 100 year old bowls, there really isn't much in Biloxi, or Mobile, or anywhere along the gulf - just sand and water.  Where are all the college girls in bikinis?

That's why we ended up in Florida.  We're right down the road from the Pensacola Navel Air Station at the "Sleep Inn."   Drop by and see us - three other people already have since the front desk keeps giving out keys to our room!  We wouldn't mind, and they could even stay, except they don't look like the partying types - one lady actually said, "God bless you," when she left.  So here's the deal.  We're in Pensacola because it was time to stop (105 degrees / 90% humidity!) - not because there's anything magical or mysterious.  Trust us though, by tomorrow morning they'll be plenty happening around the ol' Sleep Inn if they keep giving out our room key!...

      
It's amazing how a few hurricanes can clean up a beach!                             Has Kevin finally met his match?

      
      See!  We really went to a museum and everything!                          The Mad Potter & Kevin - switched at birth?

    Kevin,  all you need to do to look just like that loony is to grow or paste on a handlebar mustache.   The other traits you already possess!

    Your tooth filling second from the back looks a little loose. You might want to have that looked at.

    Just sayin!
