Good morning,Ray. How did you manage to get a picture of me before I’ve had coffee? ;-)
Morning Lysie, not sure I will have time for breakfast before the big event this am, but will “scramble” to do so.
A chance for thunderstorms is on tap for the greater Tampa area, with high temperatures of 85 degrees. Thunderstorms are a fixture of Tampa weather this time of year.
Moving on up to Pittsburgh for today's later rally, Atlantic Aviation operates a cavernous 30,000 sq ft hanger for general and corporate aviation. Most likely this event will be a "land-speak-and-takeoff" event for Trump. He has done these in the past with great success. Airport security precautions filters out the riff-raff and you have several thousand highly charged Trump supporters witnessing the magnificence of the Trump aircraft as drops out of the clouds and circles the airfield for a landing.
This type rally is the 21st Century equivalent of the 20th Century "whistle-stop" tours, in which presidential candidates would travel the nation on rickety rails and deliver addresses from the train as spectators listened from the train platforms. Below is a photo of Harry Truman on just such a stop. Down below, I will put a typical shot of a "land-speak-and-takeoff" stop by Donald Trump.
I'm thinking we need to come up with a catchier phrase for this.
Update. Was told Gov Scott will speak first.
People still filing in. I have been going about thanking the Tampa Police Department personal for being out in force.
Because it is a convention center....no seats. Pretty hard on the elderly present.
As Donald Trump begins the battle of a lifetime, against some of the most evil factions in our nation, let us pray for his safety and victory.
St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle, be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray; and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly host, by the power of God, thrust into Hell Satan and all the other evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.
May God bless and protect Donald Trump, his family, and everyone here today.
I once spent a year working at St Louis University hospital traveling back and forth to my home in CA every other weekend. In the summer it seemed to rain 24/7 but then I realized it was just the humidity most of the time!
Trump, as the expression goes, is “bringing them out of the woodwork.”
I’m going to quit following these threads.
The reason? I see all those pictures of breakfast and my grocery list just gets longer and longer..
FL is winnable.
Tampa is smack dab in in I-4 corridor that carries the state.
Trump needs to do well here to pick up the Sunshine State in November.
Pittsburgh is on the other end of a state that hasn’t gone GOP since 1988.
Vote fraud in Philly & Pitts will probably land the Keystone State in Hillary’s column.
If Trump keeps coming back though, maybe he thinks he can pull off an upset in PA.
jealous.. have fun. stay safe.
Reminds me of the Bananas Foster pancakes (or waffles) at IHOP. Yummy!
are you imgur? your pix? they are great .. keep them coming if yours
“botox-detox”. Reminds me of something Roseann Barr said many decades ago — that she had “anorexia-dyslexia”.

Good morning. IHOP, so good. Breakfast is by far my favorite meal.
They have just said The Pledge of Allegiance ...Am opening speaker from Florida.
