 As we travel to more places and have more fun in Florida, Mrs Funmeister and I have learned that minor league sports activities actually can be as much or more fun than their major league counterparts. And those who follow us, know we like fun at frugal prices.

While in search of adventure recently in south Florida, we decided to stop for lunch at Jane's Garden Cafe down in Naples. It is nestled in the Courtyard Shops at 3rd Street and 13th Avenue. That's in the midst of an upscale shopping and dining area. The place is not easy to find.

Valentine's Day is on the way. That got Mrs. Funmeister and myself thinking about the most romantic vacation destinations we have visited since we started crisscrossing the Sunshine State. There have been quite a few that have come to mind. And not all for the same reasons.
So here's our list, in no...
 In our ongoing effort to enjoy minor league baseball here in Florida, we took an evening out to indulge ourselves with a trip to Joker Marchant Stadium in Polk County to see the Lakeland Flying Tigers. Previously, we had made our way over to Osceola County to see the Fire Frogs play.
 Because of a rainout the previous...
We have stayed at a couple of Best Western Motels in the past. There even were a couple of former Best Westerns that had been converted under the Baymont flag. For the most part they were OK, but in the long run were not that great.

So we were on our way to wonderful Wabasso, when we spotted Rock City Gardens on Highway 1 - just north of Vero Beach. It looked fairly interesting from the road, but until we reviewed our "Things to Do," on TripAdvisor, we didn't know it qualified as an attraction.
When we stopped by, we found...
Lately we have seen the headlines screaming about the Coronavirus. There's already been a cruise ship quarantined and folks don't want to go out in crowds where they might catch something.
Have we got good news for you!
As we understand it, there have been no cases of the Coronavirus here in...
So we chose a Vero Beach getaway for our first real trip after the great Covid-19 scare of 2020. Actually, it was not a real getaway as the restaurants had not opened for sit down dining and some of the places we wanted to go were not yet opened.
But never fear, we'll be...
Wewahitchka, Florida. Have you ever heard of this town? Can you even pronounce it? Mrs. Funmeister and I decided to stop waiting for "when." So we began looking for places and things to enjoy "now." That, despite a small budget and a limited amount of time.One of our initial forays has been to Florida's Tupelo Honey Festival.
It's a Tradition
Since...
We have written in the past about the Wild Turkey Tavern in Avon Park. Recently we learned that they are serving breakfast. They're only available on the weekend, which fit our schedule. So, we decided to drop by and give it a shot.
Our Breakfast
The restaurant only recently added the breakfast option. They start at...
