My favorite spots for watching snowbirds run soft aground in the ICW
were between the St. Mary's River and the St. Johns River near
Jacksonville (great fishing in the creeks there off the ICW -which is
why I was there), and just south of the new AIA bridge in St. Augustine,
where a nice sandbar lurks right next to the channel.

I really like the St. Augustine area. We stayed overnight and had dinner
at the Conch House Marina.

Aha...one of our favorite spots, too. Nice restaurant, first-class
marina. The conch comes in from the Carib, by the way. Great place to
fish, too. One chilly winter day, my wife and I stopped there for lunch,
and she thought she'd try her luck casting a live shrimp under the dock
closest to the restaurant. She ended up catching three flounder right
there, to the amazement of the lunchtime diners. The rocky point on the
left just as you enter Salt Run is a great fishing spot, and, of course,
so is the St. Augustine inlet right there.

The best restaurant in the Jax area is Marker 32, just off the ICW at
Beach Boulevard. There are some marinas within walking distance and it
is worth the stop. You need reservations.

There's also the Columbia Restaurant in old St. Augustine. It is located
in a Spanish colonial building. The food is good, not terrific, but the
walk through old town, St. Augustine, is worth a day trip. Avoid the
restaurants by the city pier in St. Augustine, though...tourist traps.

Jesus was the ultimate liberal progressive revolutionary of all history.
The conservative religious and social structure that he defied hated and
crucified him. They examined His life and did not like what they saw. He
aligned himself with the poor and the oppressed. He challenged the
religious orthodoxy of his day. He advocated pacifism and loving our
enemies. He liberated women and minorities from oppression. He healed on
the Sabbath and forgave adulterers and prostitutes. He associated with
drunks and other social outcasts. He rebuked the religious right of his
day because they embraced the letter of the law instead of the Spirit.
He loved sinners and called them to himself. Jesus was the original
Liberal. He was a progressive, and he was judged and hated for it. It
was the self-righteous religionists that he rebuked and he called them
hypocrites.

The primary issues of Christian Liberalism were birthed when Jesus spoke
the profoundly prophetic words found in Matthew 25: 31-46. These
scriptures reveal God's heart for the poor, the sick and other neglected
people through out history. Christians should read this text and judge
for themselves which of the two groups mentioned there more accurately
reflect the political parties of today. His Liberalism lives on today
and the issues have not changed much.
