Good morning, Tim.

After a lot of Thanksgiving week travel and a victory by my FSU Seminoles, today's a good day to sit around the house and relax. I intend to do just that.

Oops. I've just been reminded of my honey-do list. Well, except for the relaxing part it's a great Thanksgiving weekend!

I'm in-state so it's just a few hours away. Haven't been in quite a while.

Many of the cars are amazing. The event's gotten so big that you can no longer see everything so you pick your interests and plan accordingly.

But if you're a restorer, it's heaven. There are more vendors and enthusiasts there, selling oddball things, than anywhere else that I know. Before eBay, it was the only practical access to a lot of it.

And what a great victory it was! It's really quiet today next to the swamp.

Dang! We were talking about meeting before one of the FSU games this season, which is now behind us....

Do you make it this way for any of the basketball games?

I haven't yet, but I may take my son to one this year. Depends on the time. We definitely need to meet up.

Yep. If you live in Florida, visit here, know where to find it on a map, can say 'Florida', or just think that wearing shorts and flip-flops on Christmas isn't that weird, then

Merry Christmas

from your friends in Florida!

Good evening everyone and Merry Christmas!

Enjoying the Florida weather for a couple of weeks. Flip flops, t shirt and shorts on Christmas, I'll take it.
