APtravelnews-February 27th, Port St Lucie, FL–Please enjoy a few of our thousands of our traveler images. As we are always on the Road Again, we do get lucky and experience some fun opportunities!!
Face to face with a great fish!Always traveling. This time, Orange Beach, ALThe real little rascals know how to take apart a boat. Otters all!!Oceola Turkeys flushed by our boat! Never see another image like that again! They were moving 30-miles an hour.
My W. Virginia Brown trout 24-inches of pure action in a branch- filled river!
Barb was in the mood to have a fried fish platter. I had it grilled. Both ways were yummy!!!!!!
APtravelnews-Lake Okeechobee, FL.–February 25th,–Its not the first time we have eaten at a Tin Fish Restaurant, but every time we do we keep on coming back due to the “consistency factor.”Each time we visit for lunch or dinner, we get what we expect; a hot tasty dish of shrimp, salmon, mahi, (Dolphin fish) our way! We like fried fish, but as we get older the far more healthier way to eat seafood and fish is grilled! At Tin Fish you can have it your way! the owner-its his great way or the highway!
Today we had shrimp and calamari (squid) appetizers and mahi and shrimp platters replete with my favorite cole slaw; Spicy Slaw custom made at the restaurant.
Everything including the waitresses was perfect! Google Tin Fish Restaurant, go there and get a “bite”, there’s more than one in Florida and more are coming, stay tuned!!
Brian Curry and Nicole Boulete, owners of the Corner Grill put in considerable work and efforts to cleanup to develop their new business! Food, cleanliness and decor was terrific!!!!
APtravelnews-Port St. Lucie, FL-February 18th,–Bob and Barb “Stopping to Smell the Roses” at The Corner Grill. The Corner Grill Restaurant, located in the Bridge Plaza just off Port St Lucie, Blvd. 1068 SE Port St Lucie to be exact, is owned and operated by Nicole Boulete and Brian Curry. This is no run-of-the-mill Grill! Serving breakfast and lunch, the Corner Grill puts out some mighty large and tasty meals. We first met the folks here when we stopped for breakfast last week. Barb said that she was very happy with her egg dish, and I agreed with my cheese omelet, that everything tasted fresh and there was no greasiness to anything. We decided to go back and have lunch today! We were very glad we did. Our positive suspicions were correct; this is no ordinary food emporium! What we ate: We started with Hidden Shrimp. Perfect shrimp covered en cruet by delicious melted mozzarella cheese that also covered a tasty addition of spinach. We left nothing over!! We tried a Mac and Cheese Burger, yep! Mac and cheese on top of a perfectly cooked to our liking, burger with perfectly done fresh grilled bacon strips-WOWSER!!! We also tried an impressive pork sandwich with three different cuts of pork, pickles, more bacon, served with a cucumber salad. So big was this delicious dish that we could only eat half of it (yep, doggy/people bag is in our fridge now for today’s lunch too) although if my stomach was as big as my eyes it would all have gone down, right then!
Roomy and airy, decorated with all manner of marine and tropical metal fish and palm tree scenes, the place was very relaxing and our waitress was very nice and friendly- yes, we even left her a decent tip, for a change in exchange for great service! The Corner Grill is open now for two months and from Monday to Saturday from 7am–3pm and on Sunday from 7am to 2 pm. Ask about their special Friday breakfast which also includes coffee! Give a call 772-249-0087, although, just stopping in will always get you a table too! They serve dishes such as Poquine (French Fries with a gravy and cheese curds, yes ate that too) and other French Canadian specialties!
Global warming due to “US” has not melted my Arctic landing pad!
APtravelnews-February 15th, The Arctic–40-below and the copter was still operating, but no, we didn’t shut the motor down. Sure, we may be in a warming cycle, the earth has been in and out of these cycles for untold millions of years. Why would anyone be so foolish as to think people are changing the worlds climate in any truly significant way? As a world traveler, for the past 52-years, I’ve seen and heard many things from many people, including some of the finest true Scientists in the world. But frankly, not a one of these “true” Scientists” that did not have a political agenda, ever espoused that the cause of the “big melt” was due to humanity! Yes, in various locales, and on a micro-climate basis there have been some changes and (very limited areas) but G-D and his, its, hers nature is still calling the shots! The only thing I can say is move over Florida, with this winter and the past couple, lots of folks up North Country way are going to be looking for a home in the sun!
