The Leopards Eating Faces and Unlubed Dildo of Consequences Thread
locodos replied to Horn Dog's topic in Cloak Room
You hate to see it. I'm sure they won't get fooled again! 'They used us’: Latino voters in Florida react to Trump's deportation measures https://www.nbcnews.com/now/video/latino-voters-in-florida-react-to-trump-s-deportation-measures-242321477802 -
Good advice for Keys thread. Although I just get a bag of claws from the shop up front (have them cracked there) some mustard, and some fish dip. Grab some cold beers on the way to your rental and the evening is set. Maybe pick up some Dion's chicken to eat cold on the boat tomorrow for lunch.

The Scots love Americans who claim to be Scottish. or so I'm reliably informed

Yeah women are complicated, you'll figure it out someday.

That said a favorite vacation I recommend to friends is to rent a place for a week on Cayo Costa (IDK how they fared after the storm) But cool little place to fly or boat in. Sand streets and golf carts, cool rental houses, and chill vibes. Bring bug spray, sunscreen, and beer. Probably in that order.

I don't really consider Kice/Romano to be part of the area I was describing. Yeah I guess it's in 10K islands. I've camped on that shoal out there, it's a shell covered wild beach, so that's kinda cool. More outdoorsy than beachy though IMO. I've been from Tiger Island down through Whitewater Bay, I've run Tin Can Alley and the outside to/from Islamorada many times. I wouldn't swim in there for two reasons: Sharks Fucking Sharks! As for the west coach beaches I'm not a hater, but the OP asked for recs within an hour of Wellington. The other poster asked for east coast recommendations. So Cayo Costa didn't make the list. As for crowding, Hutchinson Island beach access points will be less crowded at noon than pretty much any west coast beach. Once the flotillas arrive, it's just as crowded if not more so. As for cheek to cheek, east coast cheek >> old mid west, west coast cheek.

I always wanted a device that you could aim at a car and set off their airbags. Being in S. Florida with the crazy aggressive drivers, I totally get having a student driver sticker on the car for the kiddos. I mean they don't even know how to pack a mag and eat their MickeyDs at the same time. When I see one of those stickers I do cut them some slack. <RANT> Those mofos sitting at a green light staring at their phone can EABODs! They get the horn instantly, and not the polite beep beep horn either. </RANT>

No one besides half a billion mosquitos and no see ums. Beach camping on the outside of Choko was fun until the full moon rose over the bay. Incredible sight but the leeward side of our cooler was black with no see ums. I would NOT go swimming in the 10k Islands/Chokoloskee/Flamingo areas, not that you'd want to. East coast beach recs North to South Jupiter/Hutchinson Island: (above) If you want to be away from crowds, Hutchinson is the place imo YMMV Red Reef Park in Boca Raton: You'll pay to get in and park, nice beach nice facilities, the price keeps the crowds down some. Deerfield Beach: pay lot by the SE 9th St. By the Embassy Suites (there is some diving off the beach just patch reef but you will see some fish) It's just far enough north that you might get a little swell rolling into the beach. Lauderdale By the Sea: Just south of the pier there is good snorkeling and a decent little patch reef. LBS is a little tourist town that gets it mostly right and there is food and entertainment and it's not over developed (huge beach hotels) Haulover Beach: Miami feel and a nice wide beach in Dade that isn't on S Beach. There is a nudie beach on the north end if that's your thing Rent a boat and go to Boca Chita / Elliot Key / snorkle Fowey Rocks then finish up at the Haulover Sandbar (that's a full day start early)

Yeah, The reason I don't have a place in the keys is that I want more out of life than fishing and drinking. In the keys that's all there is... world class fishing and drinking. Well world class drinking anyways. We used to rent a place down there in the summer, but it's a small redneck town in a beautiful setting, and that's it. PS They had more than 500k on the walls at one point. They were staring down a hurricane and decided to thin things out a bit. I love a royal pizza but it's almost $40. I'd rather go to Mangrove Mamas

They'll remember the first time they see a shark / flying fish / barracuda. Also just be aware, the Keys don't really have beaches, not that you can access without a boat or that don't stink to high heaven. (Smathers in KW *might* be the only exception.)

uuuuuhhh That's a long drive just to see a frankly disappointing ship buoy. It's gonna be 3hrs down from Miami and 3 back *IF* you're lucky. If you want to snorkel with the kiddos John Pennekamp is right there in Key Largo. ~45mins from Miami. (or Looe Key if you're going down to KW) If you go down, stop at: Robert is Here fruit stand in (near) Homestead (fruit milkshakes) Robbie's so the kids can see/feed the Tarpon mm 77.5 gulfside On Big Pine drive to No Name Pub. (easy to find- thanks internet) Touristy but out of the way and you WILL see Key Deer. If you eat there have a Royal Everything in the keys is touristy and expensive. The best way to experience the Keys is out on a boat. If you're not going out on a boat, I'd say skip it.

Well Gamecock football would finish anyone off. I wonder if he lived to see that screw job the refs put on them last year. That may have done it.
