We took a recent trip to High Springs on a lark. There we found one of the coolest little places we have run upon while traveling the Sunshine State. The cornerstone of our experience was a stop at The Great Outdoors Restaurant.
Located on North Main Street in the historic downtown district, the place is...
The Sunshine State has more beach area than any other state. And each of the 12 coasts of Florida has it's own designation. We have compiled a dozen different named locales, although it appears there might even be more. Starting in Pensacola and ending up in Jacksonville there's some 1,350 miles of beach from the Gulf to...
While in search of adventure recently in south Florida, we decided to stop for lunch at Jane's Garden Cafe down in Naples. It is nestled in the Courtyard Shops at 3rd Street and 13th Avenue. That's in the midst of an upscale shopping and dining area. The place is not easy to find.

 Generally when we travel, Mrs Funmeister and I like to explore new things. And that includes places to stay.  However, we have started to find locations in some of our favorite spots that have become go-to options. That is, places we have found that we can count on. Reliable choices for dining, exploring or lodging....

The display at Wickham Park is held each year...
This Thanksgiving we ventured to Tarpon Springs. It is the Grecian capitol of Florida and the Sponge Capital of the World.
As most people know, the restaurant world virtually closes to the public on Thanksgiving day. That's when the bulk of the American public gathers for family time and football.

We would like to take this opportunity to share some scenes from the Sarasota Farmers' Market.
One of our favorite outdoor shopping experiences has been this exposition in Sarasota. It has been a great source of entertainment and goodies to take home. In fact, we have written about it in the past. This time, however, we thought we'd let you...
  Those wishing to spend a Saturday in Sarasota can have quite a bit of fun. We found a myriad of different things to see, do and experience. And, at relatively low prices.
 Mrs Funmeister and myself recently packed up the wagon and headed out to the city by the Gulf for a bit of shopping and relaxation.
The Farmer's...
