Ft. George Island, A Nearby Paradise

Two bike circles around the island. The first for speed. The second for garbage and we found lots of it. Two bags full. I am beginning to love/hate Busch  beer. It is easy to spot the bright blue in the underbrush. It is hard to imagine that folks who seek out this sacred isle, then fling beer cans. The feathers were the island's spirit gift to me.

Perhaps, the mom talking on her cell, with the two leaping dogs AND the baby didn't notice the pacifier was gone.
