1/17/2015 – TRAVELING BY BOOK TO FLORIDA

It’s a bleak winter day in Maryland, and my feet ache to walk the hot sands of a South Florida beach. It’s time to reread some of my favorite Florida authors.

You might think I’m talking about Ernest Hemingway or Marjorie Rawlings. Yes, they lived and wrote about Florida, but I never could get into The Yearling. Anyway, their books just don’t evoke the same feelings of nostalgia as my favorites.
