Wonderful Ride!

Except...the turnpike took away the sign to Key West, and closed a couple of ramps, so I ended up in a not-so-nice section of Miami!

I finally got directions back to I95 from the only one who looked as though he could speak English...a Louis Farrakhan look-alike(complete with weird BOW TIE) who was giving out newspapers on the corner. He directed me back to 95 which just ENDED and became Route 1 in Biscayne Bay. Then there was a huge traffic snarl due to an accident. I scooted off Rt 1 and headed west to homestead, finding the Turnpike and proceeded to the Keys. It was on the 20 mile straight that goes through the Mangroves that i saw the sign “CROCODILES CROSSING”. That just made me laugh.

When i got to my destination, we all went for a swim, had a few beers and some shrimp, and then I went home.

The return trip was uneventful.

The Irish part of me burns, and the Indian part of me tans, so I now have a lovely, painful tan.

What a GREAT Day!

I guess I’m not happy unless I am “overcoming” something!

I remember the Thresher. I was just a child, but was very upset by the story.

You Are Adventurous
You are quite adventurous and brave, but you are also reasonable about it. You don't have to be on an adventure 24/7.
You have good judgment and balance. You like to try new and exciting things, but you also pay attention to risk.

You're not the type of person who would throw your life away just to go on a new trip or have a new romantic partner.
You like your thrills in small, safe doses. You are gutsy in all aspects of your life from career to relationships.

Good evening, ML!

*HUGS*

I can't remember where the extension to the Fla Tpke kicks in - haven't been down that way for many a long year. The extension would have taken you out to the edge of the Glades and away from the congestion and mayhem of Miami. I used to drive the stretch of Dixie Highway - US-1 - between Dadeland Mall, at S.W. 82nd St. every day to downtown Miami and back home in the evening. It was a bear in the late 70's and early 80's - I can't imagine what a mess it must be now!

It kicks in just north of the intersection with I-95. I was down there a month ago for the coldest weekend of the year to hear a chamber music concert in Palmetto Bay.

So sorry to hear this, Kathy. I hope your IT people can find a solution soon.

We had a patch yesterday afternoon where our software crashed. We'd reboot, get back in and code a few documents and then it would crash again. Extremely frustrating - we have a production deadline coming up this week. Today was better, thankfully.

Good luck with your ‘puter problems.

Let’s see... 1000 / batches of 8 at a time = 125 batches

:(
