save yankeetown




went to west coast on sunday via motorcycle...
hot ride!! stopped in crystal river (known for crystal clear waters, manatees and the nuclear plant) wanted to see inglis (ok, seen that...now where?) rode thru yankeetown and found a tiny town freshly taken over by gov. jeb bush...battles over land development left the city government in wreckage. stopped to talk to a local businessman along water...he explained city hall as run by "good ole' boys..the kind that make you disappear" yikes! development will come folks...you can hardly stop it...

overheard at crackers resturant in crystal river:
customer to waitress: i'll have the turtle soup.....and make it snappy!
