RD , I've never been there . I googled it and I now know where it's at . For the most part I rarely go to a bar off the barrier Island , with the exception of the Quarter Deck on the Dania Beach Pier . Just too many nice places within walking distance from my place to deal with the crazy traffic in the winter . Will have to put in on the list to try
Well yeah, because it takes them a day and half to make the trip. By the time they're back home they need more groceries.
I left Panama City, May 3 1984...on an '81 KZ750LTD with $290....people still ask when I am coming back.....never.
I don't speak for Panama City or the whole panhandle for that matter ( Alabama and Georgia could claim that area) when I say it's great here....but pass that sentiment along because we're full down here
Meh... I'm 5th generation. Left in '68 before the Mouse opened. I like to go visit family and the old haunts, but have no desire to move back. I've grown accustomed to having a real change of seasons, hills and curvy roads. IF I ever retire, it will be to the mountains.
Some things. Dated but pertinant... https://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/03/27/florida-best-state_n_4981731.html
Yes indeed. My parents used to take us from Lakeland to Ybor City just to get a sammich from the Silver Ring is Ybor City. I think the original has been gone for years.
After driving through this past weekend I believe the current curviest road in Florida is I4 through Orlando.
There are a few out in the boonies, not many. Dad used to sell ag chemicals before he started an produce growers magazine. We would go with him to check the groves as he built his contact list. There was a road somewhere near Frost Proof where they simply paved over the elevated rows of a grove. It was the hilliest road in central FL back in the 60s.
Didn't the original (Ybor) have another type of meat in addition to the ham & pork and Miami's contribution was the arrangement the rest of us now know? Regardless, Cuban workers in Ybor City is what I have always heard as the origins.
