From nursecindy:
I just wanted to let you know that my daughter just got back from Florida. She said when they got close to Miami she saw a woman in a pink flamingo costume protesting GMO's. Another lady was dressed in a shrimp costume. Further down the road there was a guy, standing right in the middle of the road, asking for donations. He didn't mention who or what the donations were for but if you gave him a dollar he would make a rose out of a palm frond. You aren't making up any of things you write about Miami are you?
