 If you're wondering where to eat in Bonita Springs, you owe it to yourself to stop for a bite at Dolly's Produce Patch & Eatery. While the produce patch was gone, a cute little restaurant with some tasty deserts was sitting along Bonita Beach Road just waiting for discovery.
  Sandra and I were out seeing the sights, and...
 When Sandra and I travel the Sunshine State, there are times we need groceries. And as far as we can tell, no single store or chain screams "Florida" more than Publix.
 Sometimes we just need a bottle of water or some snacks. Other times, a "Pub Sub" is on the menu. After all, we love to stop where...
 The good news is that NASGRASS is ready to sling sod at their home opener, the bad news is, it won't be until October. Two days before their inaugural race for the 2024-25 season, the track was hit by a massive rainstorm. It left the place waterlogged.
 So now they will be racing on the second Saturday of...
Well, we discovered a new place in Lake Wales - Brake Burger Garage. It came just in time for us to celebrate "Burger Week" in Polk County. Our only question is, "How had we missed this place for so long?"
We have dined at other automotive-themed restaurants like Ford's Garage, which has several locations in Florida. But this is a...
Sometimes Sandra and I go to a place for the food, sometimes for the ambience - but this time it was for the entertainment. Our friend Corey Greenway from the Outta Hand Band was performing with another band member, Roger Brutus under the moniker "Prime Country."
I must admit, the screened in room at the Grove House was quite warm...
Recently, Sandra and I enjoyed a trip to Fort Myers Beach - also known as FMB. Despite some significant remaining damage from last year's Hurricane Ian, there's plenty to see and do in the area.
One of our great delights was that the Edison Beach House is again up and running. We spent a week there with our sister and...
ChampCar is a fun series that runs at the Sebring International Raceway from time to time. Now, they plan a 12-Hour overnight competition.
  Usually when Sandra and I pick a hotel room, it's at or near a beach. Perhaps we get a lodging near an event we plan to attend. This time, we were down in Boca Raton on business and we discovered an in-town gem. It's the Holiday Inn Boca West on Glades Road.
A Quick Check-in
  This wonderful little lodging...
  Greek food was not on the list Sandra and I took the funmobile off to Sarasota. We actually were in search of some bargains and fresh produce (more on that later). We had just arrived at Bradenton. So, we decided to get off at the University Town Center to see what we could find. At the end of...
After quite a lengthy absence, Barry and Sandra are back to talk about their travels around the Sunshine State. We're also ready to give hints to others who also might be going around some of the more fun places in Florida.
As you know, we had been traveling regularly for quite some time. However, we were overtaken by events. Now,...
