I’m in Daytona, Florida for gymnastics nationals. The thrill of seeing the peak human performance, showcases of yearslong effort and training, makes me even more committed to the sport. Will let you know guys know how I do.

It’s so nice to be in the Florida sun, although I really don’t crave moving here. Every Carl Hiassen trope seems to spring from the woodwork. There’re campaign signs of some guy running for office and he looks like he keeps gators in his basement while he pawns off the everglades. The number of neck tattoos stun me. A girl’s profile on tinder says simply, “I’ve made some mistakes but I’ve changed, I promise.” Umm.

Florida man is real.
