I'm currently (still) in transit to your neck of the woods. Glad I'm not the one driving, but it's a LOOOOOOONG drive.
Especially on the turnpike once you're south of Orlando. Actually glad to see transmission lines.

Still hot for me.
If I could choose my every day temperature, it would be about 55.

Boca is about 20 minutes North and 6 minutes East of us.
But certainly Iguana country.

About 10 kids already.
Hope I have enough candy.
I resorted to giving out quarters two years ago.

Just back from a great long day at the beach. Sun all day long....first a nice cuppa coffee at our favorite spot, then we sat on the beach and watched waves crash, walked the boardwalk, enjoyed the still flowering golden rod and yuccas poking out of the natural dunes, and a wonderful setting sun over the Chesapeake Bay Bridge back home.
First - Coffee at Our Favorite Shop
Pathway to the Beach
Goldenrod Poking from the Dunes
Sun Setting As We Cross Over the Bay Bridge

Finally got out of the rental car for a few minutes. Checked into the hotel, now back in the car for a short trip to Publix.

Those northeast beaches are cool.
My wife took me to one in Rhode Island a few years ago.
It just seemed so different somehow.

Publix Carrie's CHEERWINE soft drink.Finally got out of the rental car for a few minutes. Checked into the hotel, now back in the car for a short trip to Publix.
The official soda of South Carolina.
Usually not in diet however.
But it's the only place between here and an 11 hour drive to find it.
Happy Halloween everyone and safe travels to those of you out and about..!
How fun! Next year make some brain cake and offer them some. MUAHAHA! Reposting the pic (it's that good!)

Ahem, Anne, do you work for Publix by any chance?
I have been a Queen fan since Bohemian Rhapsody was released when I was 11.Same here! Review first thing tomorrow, please!
So, the film:
Starts with the 20th Century Fox fanfare being played on guitar... undoubtedly by Brian May
It isn't going to win any oscars and they have had to sanitise the story somewhat to get a 12A certificate here in the UK (Viewers must be aged 12 or over and accompanied by an adult if under 18)
The CGI effects at Wembley for Live Aid are a bit dodgy in places.
There are some very good impersonations of well known figures such as Bob Geldoff and Radio DJ Kenny Everett (who probably means nothing to anyone aged under 35 or from outside the UK, however his form of anarchy meant that Bohemian Rhapsody got airplay when radio stations said it was too long)
The music wins though and yes, we did enjoy the film and the story it told.
