Oto Cars

Not quite the weather I expect to see in Sebastian Florida, the price of oranges may be going up soon.

Well temperatures are getting lower as we head towards February, my pond was frozen over this morning, makes me think of this song by Pete Harris:

This is about half way to where I want to be about now with the colder weather coming this way.

New River Gorge Bridge near Fayetteville, West Virginia was for many years the longest arch bridge in the world.

(still just as long, someone just made a longer one)


Anyway, I'm just not ready for the snow yet



and I'm definitely not looking forward to driving around in the stuff


Ah . . . . . . . . . . . That's better.



Where ever there are palm trees, they probably don't sell snow shovels.


I'm not a biker but it's a cool place to go


Earl's Hideaway in Sebastian Florida, one of the best places around to just hang out with a "cold one" on their sand bar listening to the band, or there's Captain Hiram's just a couple of blocks up the river with a nice sand bar and beach on the river to enjoy a cold one and listen to their band.

Captain Hiram's incidentally is where Pete Harris played for years.

Farewell Sebastian Florida, hope to be back very soon.



Got to take care of business in Burlington Ontario then I'll be back.



While traveling through Virginia, I heard a really disturbing bit of news then saw evidence of what I heard.


Due to budget restraints Virginia is CLOSING 14 of it's 42 REST AREAS and I've heard similar stories in other states.


What about DRIVER FATIGUE, TUNNEL VISION, HIGHWAY HYPNOSIS, SAFETY BREAKS ? ? ?


Just how many deaths does it cost to keep a rest area open?



One sleepy driver killed per year crashing into the ditch because he was too tired to make the next exit,


Ten dozy drivers per year crossing the median crashing head-on into unsuspecting oncoming traffic because they didn't stop 196 miles ago at the last rest area,


One hundred drivers killed per year because they fell asleep behind the wheel and left the road striking whatever or whoever was in their path only because they couldn't find a reasonably safe place to pull off the Interstate and rest for a little while ? ? ?


I say keep them open and add more for safety's sake . . . and the occasional pee.

Let Corporate America fund them with advertising revenue and concessions. I'm not talking about full blown service plazas just small food and beverage concessions and advertising opportunities to support maintenance of the rest area.

How much can it cost to cut the grass, have a couple of lights on, supply water and clean toilets?

I'm just thinkin' . . . . . . .

Well,

I have arrived in Florida. (a couple of weeks ago)

and YES, I saw Ruby Falls,

pretty cool.



I'm always amazed at the abundance of wildlife when I reach Florida.


From the Sandhill Cranes and Lizards that hang out at my mom's house


The Peacocks, Peahens and Lizards that hang out at my sisters house.

The Rabbits, Squirrels, Lizards and big bugs at my brothers house



to the fish, birds, Lizards and alligators along the River.


Oh and there are Lizards in Florida too, if you look closely you might see a few thousand,
pretty cool, they keep the bugs down.


anyway . . .

I like the local traffic.



NO TRAFFIC JAMS AROUND HERE!
