Adam mentioned that there was some technical glitch to do with a new server. I did not get much time for the computer Saturday (cycling) and then Sunday, our internet service provider dropped the ball and left us and our neighbours without internet access for much of the afternoon and evening.

Enjoy! I lived for a while in St Pete's Beach.

There was a very nice lady who worked in one of the local travel agencies in downtown St Petersburg. Her name was Glory.
It gave me great pleasure (when I needed to fly somewhere) walking into her business and saying "Good Morning Glory!"
Thank you. St. Pete Beach is nice! We will be hanging out at Fort De-Soto county park North beach.

Quite a bit lower than Tassie. Hell, we're practically at the South pole!

What the hell just happened?

The forum stopped loading last Friday and I just now got back on! I tried everything, even different machines, browsers and devices.

Nothing.

Even joined Twitter so I could whine about it. Made one post there last night. When I tried checking in on it this morning it locked me out, saying something about breaking rules.

All I did was try and sign on.

Now it won’t let me in unless I give them a phone number.

They ain’t getting it.

Sheesh!
That's weird. I've had no problem all weekend.

Hi Racer

Ooh yeh its frosty here bbrr
Very hilly for us anyway in the valley always frosty in winter....thats why I live on the plain....the western burbs..
But do the paper run in the hilly bit and valley
It was -1 C when I finished earlier

Dave
You can always move North, towards the Equator. I hear they get some dry, hot weather up that way.

So thanks to the wonders of the internet and the Almighty Google, I visited your fair community. Looks like a place I would love to live.

So, tell us, what is the history of this building?





And is this motocross track private or public?
