I was in St. Pete on Saturday to move my daughter back into the dorm. It was quiet downtown, but I’m sure it didn’t stay that way for long, with the RNC events starting on Sunday.

This is the only RNC pic you’ll see from this girl. Thankfully, I don’t have to work in downtown Tampa,  and I’m going nowhere near that mess! I’m grateful for any money it brings to local businesses, but it has made a mess of our traffic, and I’ll be glad when it’s gone!
