Bart you and ARC and any of our other keys and south Florida pirates need to keep an eye on the seas and skies, could be some nasty stuff coming your way.

I found a Flagler railroad train car today.....mark and I spotted it in the shallows, neither of us had ever seen this crazy piece of bottom....it had giant concrete pillars laying all over the bottom in 6-8 feet of water.....there was pipes and plate steel, and the train trolly ?? The one that goes on the tracks, and 2 guys use a lever to get it going.....I think thats what I found on the bottom !! I jumped in at the front of all this debri while mark, went down stream in the boat. I quickly drifted down current over the top of the debri....it was a rush....thousands of fish...nurse sharks,yellow jacks,pilchards,mangrove snapper,grunts,spadefish,lobster,angelfish,hogfish,chubs,spadefish, barracuda and im sure I forgot some !! Current was 4knots, and I couldn't slow down at all....it was a great little discovery that ill get on film at slack/ebb tide !!

The Flagler Railroad

Now a multi-use trail, the Florida Keys Overseas Heritage Trail was once called The Florida East Coast Railway Key West Extension. The historic bridges that remain today are remnants of a railroad that was once considered the 8th wonder of the world.

Good morning, Cap’n. Ain’t nothing like waking up in the middle of the night with the frightening urge to throw up, and then, once in the upright position, the biggest burning burp escapes, leaving you with a foul taste of chili dogs and onions you had for supper.

Gramma's sure fix for this.
1/4 tsp baking soda in a teacup of water.
Burp, burp no burning anymore.

Stay away from the foods that are the instigators.
I miss 🌶 🫑 but they'll do my stomach in for months, just one feed.

Tomatoes based products are always bad later in day.
Fried foods... etc.

Been there done that-hated eating anything during the day as bending just brought the acids back up into the throat.
Been really great these past few months though I have to admit.
The heartburn hasn't been an issue so knock on wood.
THat's why products like Tums/baking soda work as it neutralizes the acid.

Good morning, old Texan. I don’t like waking up to the “Oh crap!” Thoughts.
