Mean Streak!
When you're a city-slicker like me living on the east coast, you know what parts of the state to avoid. When the mosquitoes are larger than my 15 lb. Westies, I know that I'm too far west! I have to pop a Xanax just to make the 1-1/2 hour ride across I-75 for some R&R on the west coast in Naples
. The east coast is great; the west coast is very nice; the Keys are a blast; and Central Florida is also nice and fun for the kids. As for the rest of the state... well, you have the 'glades. I've never been to the panhandle, but I hear the beaches "up north" are beautiful there, too. I'm glad that you're enjoying our gorgeous South Florida winter weather! Post a few more photos in Key West if you get a chance. Try to get a shot in front of Sloppy Joe's and at the southernmost point in the US

It's been raining for the last two days and there is a high probability of it continuing for the next week. Nothing made of fiberglass is going to move an inch anytime soon.
Ordinarily, that would be a depressing thought. Today, not so much.
You see, I'm in California and that rain is just about the most beautiful sight possible right now.

Hi RK-TECT! I'll add to what you asked on pictures by taking and posting one of Mile Marker 0 in Key West's southern most point.
That's pretty cool. Speaking of cool, we here in SE Michigan are warming up to 30 degrees today. Here's our 5 day forecast

Black60...on your way north out of the Keys, there is a great sandwich shop called Chad's around MM 100-ish in Tavernier on Plantation Key. My family has been eating there since they opened years ago. Or if you're looking for great pizza or Italian sub near there, try Tower of Pizza about MM 105 or so in south Key Largo. Enjoy the drive and the friendly folks. If anyone is rude in the Keys, it's usually a tourist.
Gonna drive my 63 conv from Pensacola down to Tavernier to the folks' house next year after an engine & tranny (transmission) rebuild.

Cher was bar tending yesterday and couldn't come out for a ride down Duval to hump her show. I'll try not to let you guys down.
Strange and awful photos to follow...
My son is flying to Winnipeg this morning on business. It's supposed to be -30 with the wind chill. Great timing for that trip. LOL
