Port Tampa

The view from way, way, way, South of Gandy in Tampa, Florida. (So far south you can hear them chasing birds away from the runway at MacDill.)

Park Renewal Progressing

The pictures of what Port Tampa's Spanish American War Memorial Park could be that PT Women's Club members have held in their heads, and on paper, for years are soon going to be visible to all. Construction started this week.

Help the PTCWC make the vision complete, with all the landscaping and seating the master plan calls for, by sending your tax deductible contribution to Port Tampa City Woman's Club Inc., PO Box 19067, Tampa, FL 33686.

I think that I shall never see
a poem as lovely as a tree...
A tree that was planted years ago, a tree the city decided must go...
A tree that lighted our holiday way
is now a victim of a government foray...
Poetic justice is sighed by fools like me
but only the city can replace the tree.

I grew up in PT Tampa and the tree that was torn down looked far better and served as a greater reminder than the barren look of what is there now... a flag pole; planted in concrete. I have never even seen a flag flown on it and further more; the drunken homeless people that sleep on the picnic tables should have been of greater concern than getting that flag pole! The park looks bare now; its looks sad!
