#ATL native living in #StPete and working in #TampaBay for Duke Energy. Goal is to share positive information, stories and my personal opinions.

Ran into a bunch of #Rays fans this morning waiting for the ⁦@cta⁩ Red line train to Wrigley Field for game vs. #Cubs

[Jeff Baker @JeffBakerFL]

Just boarded @VirginAtlantic VS130. The first #TPA -#LHR #flight. We’ve not even left and I’m already drinking a #RubySlipper and I’ve got a new pair of #VirginAtlantic pajamas. #AvGeek #TampaBay

[Jeff Baker @JeffBakerFL]

About to board the very first @VirginAtlantic flight from @FlyTPA to @HeathrowAirport. Thanks @StPeteChamber’s Chris Steinocher for the up close pics of @Airbus #A330-900neo’s arrival. I’m ready to experience #Virgin #UpperClass. More #FirstFlight pics to follow!

[Pinellas County Schools @my_pcs]

Thank you @DukeEnergy for restoring power to all our schools! Due to your hard work we will be able to welcome our students and staff back on Monday. We appreciate you!

[Jeff Baker @JeffBakerFL]

The journey from this tiny home in #PuertoRico to becoming #Pinellas County’s 1st Puerto Rican judge is amazing. Thanks Judge Irizarry for sharing your inspirational story at the #Hispanic Outreach Center’s #HispanicHeritageMonth luncheon.

[Jeff Baker @JeffBakerFL]

Not sure which shocks me the most: @Costco has their #Christmas trees up in August or the $1149 price tag for an artificial tree. Have to admit, it’s a good looking tree.

[Jeff Baker @JeffBakerFL]

@MarlenaStell Your story is heartbreaking. While I hate that you had to go through this, every person in this country needs to know your story. You deserved a time to mourn in peace. And you deserved basic healthcare for a true medical issue.

Saw the best kind of @tampabaywave tonight! The #wave of opportunity for 16 new businesses. World-class #StartUp support for the innovative #FinTech community is happening here in #TampaBay. https://t.co/wiSCCszLM4

Interested in #highschool #STEM education? @spcnews will be opening a new school in #Downtown #stpete. Learn more at https://t.co/Cc6ZSsD3Ng

Best one liner from the #Mayors panel goes to @JaneCastor. While discussing #Transportation needs, she said “Our regions idea of #MassTransit is two people in a SUV”. It’s definitely hard to live #CarFree in #TampaBay

[Jeff Baker @JeffBakerFL]

Great panel at @TampaBayRPC #Resiliency conference. @MayorKenWelch, @MyClearwater’s Mayor Hibbard, @LargoMayor and @JaneCastor all shared great plans for dealing with #ClimateChange and forecasted #SeaLevelRise

[Jeff Baker @JeffBakerFL]

DYK that if the #TampaBay were a stand alone #economy, it would be the 55th largest economy in the world. With that impact, this community needs a #ResilientFuture. Thanks @TampaBayRPC for convening local leaders to address critical issues.

[Jeff Baker @JeffBakerFL]

#Congratulations to @StPetePDChief on receiving the @GulfCoastJFCS Lifetime Achievement Award for the development of the CALL program, placing the right resource to non-criminal @StPetePD calls. https://t.co/exjLkO7WZX @Desert2Coast

[Jeff Baker @JeffBakerFL]

The #RaDondaVaught verdict scares me as a patient. The #Nursing profession is already critically short staffed. Given everything #nurses deal with, I understand why fewer people enter the profession.

[Jeff Baker @JeffBakerFL]

Congratulations @HCAhealthcare’s Valerie Powell-Stafford, CEO of @NSH_StPete. The Caregivers, board, and most importantly, the patients, appreciate all that you do to improve #healthcare in #TampaBay. https://t.co/hPwAPuXDbZ

[Jeff Baker @JeffBakerFL]

Love how Dr. Williams keeps it real! True #Icon in @StPeteFL.

[St. Petersburg College @spcnews]

“It’s important that we have educated faculty and staff who not only understand our Black male students, but accept them as well, dreads and all.” @SPCPresident speaking on the presidential panel at the @BBCBSummit. #BBCBSummit

[Jeff Baker @JeffBakerFL]

Over the past few years @DukeEnergy #Florida has installed over 600 #EV #charging stations. Learned today that EV drivers have used them 114,000 times saving over 200,000 gallons of #gas. Saving 💵 while being #Green! https://t.co/Hw7OV3nQS0

Attending the @GPSTPETE ?? 🏎 🏎 🏎
Visit the @DukeEnergy EV Garage - in the Al Lang Stadium parking lot. Conveniently located next to the food trucks. 😉

[Jeff Baker @JeffBakerFL]

I live in a high rise so installing #solar is not an option for me. Thanks to @DukeEnergy’s #CleanEnergy Connection launching in April, I’ll now have the opportunity to participate and benefit. Interested? https://t.co/8XA4k5SoV5

[Jeff Baker @JeffBakerFL]

This is a great commercial that should cause everyone to think… especially companies considering moving to #Florida. #DontSayGay

[Equality Florida @equalityfl]

🚨 ALERT 🚨 @GovRonDeSantis is fast-tracking the #DontSayGay bill, banning discussion of LGBTQ people or issues in classrooms. Help us stop the DeSantis Censorship and Surveillance State agenda.

TAKE ACTION: https://t.co/8Sdkai0WIi
