Tracy prefers pie to cake so I surprised her with a stop at http://millersdutchkitchen.com/ and let her pick her birthday pies. Dutch Apple and Peanut Butter Chocolate. Oh My. We ate a slice of each and sent the leftovers with the band. Kenny sang just to us it seemed.

TCM Road to Hollywood Smokey and the Bandit at Tampa Theatre w/ Ben Makiewicz & Burt Reynolds
Here is a link to the first part of the interview, part 2 is available once you get to the site:
Sunken Gardens with the Penneys, Emily, and David
Bok Tower Gardens with the Penneys
It was a beautiful day to visit Bok Tower. We strolled through the gardens and made our way to the tower to hear the bells. After this peaceful time we ate a yummy lunch in their cafe and I bought enough plants from their garden center to fill the back of the wagon! Just before John fell (was pushed?) into the pond. Ok, just kidding, he didn’t really go into the drink.
Henry B. Plant Museum / University of Tampa / Babe Ruth’s longest homer
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_B._Plant_Museum If you ever get to Tampa, take a couple of hours and visit the campus of UT. Originally built as a hotel in the late 1800’s, it is now a vibrant college. A museum is located near the entrance and you are also permitted to stroll the halls and look around. After working our way through the museum, we walked down to the river. The students who are also enlisted were practicing (not sure of the correct term) around campus – even near the sun bathing girls! This is a shot of the hillsborough river with some guy who just totally walked into the shot. Also on campus is the site of Babe Ruth’s longest homer. I think that means his longest home run but I guess they couldn’t fit that on the sign.
