They're really a great solution for long term cold storage that requires very little upkeep or staff. Not a good choice for daily operations in my opinion.

St. Pete's was absolutely amazing. Everything was stone, glass, ceramic, bronze: permanence. Except for the wood pews and confessionals. Because people are not permanent.

Salisbury to Stonehenge, no trains, 10 miles, cab is quicker than walking.
Kids were young, train ride was cool, as their first, the adults drank booze.

There were 15 of us, renting three or four cars would have been assinine.

Thanks again for your non-input.

Thanks again for your non-answer. Obviously you're not as great a driver as you have claimed.

I am not paying you rent for being in your head 24/7/365.

You need to get a hobby,,,

And anyday you want to see my driving skills, show up in SE FL, and bring at least $10K for wagering.

Thanks again for the non-answer; further evidence supporting my assumption.

Total irony on the hobby thing.

No real roads in SE FL. Or Flor'duh in general. Just flat, straight. That's not real driving, sorry.

One of the weirdest places I've been too was Edenlandia. It was (think it's still there) a knock off miniature version of Magic Kingdom just down the road from the NATO base and the American Naval Base in Naples, Italy. This place was just weird. I mean, it was even more weird than looking at designs that Yaddy draws up.
