Tampa, are you feeling stressed? Go for a walk. A long walk!

 

 Forbes Magazine named Tampa the 4th most stressed city in America. It maybe stressful, but its also beautiful. Let's focus on some of that beauty instead. Did you know that Bayshore Boulevard has the nation’s longest continuous sidewalk? Yep, 3.8 miles of scenic views which start on the north at the Columbus Statue Park and ends at Gandy Blvd. The Bayshore, as locals call it, is a popular destination for joggers, bikers, walkers, & baby strollers & in 2008 was the backdrop for a Lexus automobile commercial. The Bayshore is the site of the Annual Gasparilla Parade & has several statues & points of interest to see. You'll want to bring your camera on this run!

Aficionados consider the cigar to be the finest way to enjoy tobacco. 

  John E. Oliva Sr., President of the Oliva Tobacco Company agrees! Unapologetically masculine and complex, warm and comforting,while revealing a hint of sweetness, the aroma of dried tobacco leaves fills the air at the Oliva Tobacco Company. For 75 years the "first family of Tobacco", has been supplying  the world's premier cigar producers with fine leaf tobacco. Chances are your cigar brand of choice probably receives it's even-burning leaves from Oliva Tobacco. So the next time your in Ybor City enjoying a hand-rolled cigar, be sure to get a photo of the Angel Oliva Sr. Street sign. After all, you can't upload the smell of cigars on Facebook!
