Default The Thing.........

I thought here in Florida (which makes this a Florida thing so it is appropriate for this section) it is importnat to know (oops I spelled important wrong but I am not going to go back and fix it) that when u r in Florida, you may (may) be in Pasco county. And if u r not, then u are likely on another county here in Florida.

Since I stated something factual abt Florida.........can u add something also factual that is Florida related?

If I recall correctly. Boca Raton means Rats Mouth bcs when the Spaniards arrived here, the port or the opening to the sea looked like a rats mouth.

Did You know that "Florida Cracker" is what they called the old Florida cowboys? It's because they used bull whips to coax the cows out of the palmettos & other places where they couldn't ride their horses and the crack/sound the whip makes is where the name Fl Cracker came from...

Lake O is the 10th largest freshwater lake in the US, and is half the size of Rhode Island. It is only 9ft deep. 5 Counties have Lake O in their boundaries and they all meet at one point within the Lake.

Cedar Key: Which is NOT down the keys.
This is a very unassuming key.

You ride in their and it is very much “so-so”. Until you get to the very end when all of a sudden with no prior announcement when you ride on to Dock St or Ave, all of a sudden it looks like someone flipped a switch and you went through a space vortex or hole and popped out in Rockport Maine.

Absolutely gorgeous! And 100% totally unexpected. I would even say “odd” but beautiful.
