Some unusual neighbors in the neighborhood...

Clearwater Beach, my new neighborhood.  I am living just off the beach on an island, my building shown below in the yellow circle.  The house I stumbled onto is circled in black, East of me across the canal.  I was working on my bicycle and just road a few blocks around my local neighborhood to test it.  When I was riding, i found a house with no roof or windows, I assumed it was empty and abandoned, so I did the normal thing... I rode straight up into the house.  That's when I noticed someone was 'camping out.'

Here's the view from the street.  (when I rode by that day there was no car)



I was pretty surprised when I found the tent.  That's when I rode away.


This shot taken from my side of the canal.

I have no idea how long the roof has been gone.  Why is someone living there?  
If I find out, I'll tell you.

OK, i moved... again

Last week I moved from the Largo temporary lodging to the Island Estates of Clearwater.  When I returned from last years lengthy Walk-About, I leased a short term furnished place down in Largo, the most southern part of my 'ideal area.'  

I was down at the bottom of the Circle in Largo



Now I'm moved into Island Estates, very near Clearwater Beach, FL.

Look who I ran into

Two years ago I met a young Busker.  

"A Busker: a person who performs music or other entertainment in the street or another public place for monetary donations." 12 year old Shay Morgan working as a Busker, to raise money for a trip to Nashville, to buy a new Bass.



Fast Forward to March of 2026 and look who's back at the same spot...

Plus, she brought her younger sister along to help Busk.

It's two, too cute to not tip!
