On May 4 while on my way to Marathon from Long Key, I had the unfortunate luck of a flat tire on Grassy Key. I managed to find a right-turn lane and was able to pull of the road and was very, very relieved to see the lights of a Monroe County deputy sheriff who pulled in behind me.

Shame on U.S. Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen for calling the freedom to travel a "peripheral issue" when it comes to Cuba. She owes an apology to all of the Cubans who lost loved ones in the Florida Straits.

- No need for a fishing closure in Biscayne park
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission is the state's appointed partner of Biscayne National Park, the marine sanctuary located just south of Miami. It was in that role, representing the commission as its vice chairman, that I testified before a congressional subcommittee reviewing the Biscayne National Park general management plan.

- At Studios of Key West, it's the bottom line
In reading comments and commentary about rent charged to The Studios of Key West, it seems to me that we've been missing the big picture. The Armory is state-owned; the Historic Florida Keys Foundation serves only as a property manager.
