Thirteen stand-alone short stories that take place in Florida which contain both country yarns and city tales.  They include a delightful array of interesting characters; both good people and unsavory scoundrels from a wide range of backgrounds and cultures.   Many have a surprise ending with a twist  that often changes the readers early opinion of the main participants. The yarns and tales illuminate the diversity of people and places that reach from the Florida panhandle to the keys.  The author’s view of Florida includes a large rural component with old-fashion country values and customs.
