Clearwater Florida

We left Ocala this morning....we saw the ranches, the horses, the gated "all inclusive" model homes everyone is all excited about??? and ate the biggest dinner imaginable....where is that Pepto when you need it...burp....oooops excuse me haha. When my buddy told me that she was interested in retiring in Ocala in one of those gated communities I figured we should check them out. Well whats not to love about new upscale homes for relatively short money with more ammenities than a city has and, let's not forget, a salesperson who grew up 3 blocks from Slim Dog....gotta love New Yorkers!!! It was very interesting and we now have all the brochures - go figure ha. When we got back to the hotel we looked for a place to eat dinner and about a mile down the road found a brazilian steak house. It is an 'all you can eat salad bar' and inbetween all this delicious array of food, cooks come around with freshly cooked meats on skewers and carve it for you at the table. All very delicious but before you know it you have eaten way, way, way tooooooo much. The only way to cure this is to get on a Harley and travel West!!!! So we are now in Clearwater Florida watching the sun slowly set over the water - are we too far North to see a green flash????? It is finally getting warmer and the bikes are starting up without any prodding in fact so are we !!!! It is nice to be near the water and the sun ahhhhh life is good. Hope you all are well and keeping warm and safe. Shedding the leathers Flame and looking good in a T-shirt Slim Dog

Is the name of the restaurant Focha de chow? (or something like that?) It sounds exactly like a place we went to with S&S last year. You guys can sure pick 'em. I'm glad it's warming up for you. It's trying to get nice up here, but it keeps falling back at night. Oh well, soon enough.
Have fun and be careful. We'll see you soon.
