Hernando de Soto claims Florida for Spain.

This is one of my favorite days of the year. On June 3, 1539, Spanish explorer Hernando de Soto (1495-1542) stood in Tampa Bay and claimed all of Florida for Spain. De Soto encouraged natives to believe he was a “Sun God” to gain their passivity.

Got up early.

Decided not to work/write.

Walked to 14th & S, already teeming with DC white collars.
