The telephone and wire cable was very odd. It looked like a company did a job and threw all of the cut up wire and cable in the channel.

Comments and Feedback
Tampa is trying to implement a bead-free Gasparilla parade, didn't really work this year.... however word is getting around and it will be a positive process in years to come.
