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,...
Recently, Sandra and I celebrated our tenth wedding anniversary. We wanted to do something fun and special, so we went to one of our favorite places - The Prestige in Vero Beach.
As long-time readers know, this is an older property. But the good news is, it's well kept, it has a lot of amenities and it's within a 60-second...
If you have ever wanted to have dinner in the treetops - dining at Norwood's is for you. Having found this gem in New Smyrna Beach several years ago, we'd wanted to get around to blogging it. But seeing as how this year will mark there 75th anniversary, we just couldn't wait any longer.
The location has been one kind...
