  September is National Honey Month. We've found that Florida honey varieties are some of the tastiest in the entire United States.
  Of course everybody knows about our signature Orange Blossom Honey picked from the flowers of thousands of groves across the Sunshine State. But we also have found Palmetto, Gallberry, Sea Grape and Tupelo. Each has its own...
  Officials of the American Automobile Associations say a new study shows that American workers took an average of 17.2 days of vacation last year. According to new research from Project: Time Off that shows a half-day increase from 2016. This marks the highest level for American vacation usage since 2010 when we took an average of 17.5 days...

 The outbreak of Covid-19 brings great travel preparation opportunities for those of us who like to travel. We agree with officials of the American Automobile Association. They project that many Floridians' cars could be parked in the driveway for at least another month.
