Good-bye to 33rd Street
We recently helped Mom and Dad moved and saw a lot of beautiful flowers along the way. We have a link to a small photo album of our trip to Erie. Continue reading Good-bye to 33rd Street
Restaurants in DeLand, Florida
We’ve been able to explore some of the many good restaurants in DeLand, Florida, often walking from Stetson University campus to the historic downtown. I’ll add to this list over time. We recommend all of these. Restaurants in DeLand, Florida Angelina’s Pizzeria has delicious pizzas and Italian food at affordable prices. Our portions were large, so you could share. Bill & Frank’s Brickhouse Grill has delicious food, but can get too crazy-busy on a weekend night, so try another time.

Busch Gardens in Tampa
Mike and Sus had an opportunity to go to Busch Gardens for a day. We wanted to see their Christmas shows and their decorations. We were not disappointed. We enjoyed a very good Gospel-style Christmas concert and a great ice skating show. Both shows were very well done. For dinner we also recommend the Zambia Smokehouse in Stanleyville. We were able to share a meal because of the portion sizes and the food was delicious! At the end of the day, the lighting was fantastic… a photographer’s delight! We were really pleased with our photos and have posted several animal … Continue reading Busch Gardens in Tampa

The five of us enjoyed a great day at the park. We especially recommend The Journey to Atlantis ride and A’Lure, an acrobatic show. Continue reading A Day at Sea World
