My flight leaves at 1730 on Friday. So I have to leave the hotel at 1630, so I guess that 10 or 11ish would be plenty of time to grab a bite and see the museum. My treat of course since you are having to drive down.


PM me, if you would please!

What's that beach over there I used to go to all the time -- Spesser Holland? Something like that......

I have some friends looking to sell their condo in Indiatlantic.........I'm thinking about it........

Spessard Holland park is in Melbourne Beach. Used to hang out all over the beach from the second light at Patrick all the way down to the south side of Sebastian Inlet. Great area.

Condo in Indialatantic, huh. Could be a bit pricey, but at least the prices have stabalized there somewhat.

I just really miss it -- even though I lived in the armpit of FL (Kissimmee), it was an easy drive over there........Unless you got stuck behind a parade of morons going 12 mph on 192E!

Anywhoo......the good part of living in Kissimmee was that I was only a mile or so from work at ISM, and I was just off the path for 15, so I used to get to see some great aircraft on approach (when I for some reason wasn't actually AT the airport!) -- Lots of P-51s (OK, OK, TF-51s), the Spit, P-40, B-17, couple of B-25s -- and of course, my sweet little T-6s! I sure miss it!

Well shoot! Sometime when you're back in MLB, take a hike over to ISM & talk to my friend Chuck @ Warbird Adventures!

I need to make a public service announcement, and say that I miss Bear. :( There need to be more regulars on today! ;)

I'd say I miss Trae, but I know he won't disappoint me and he'll be around in about the next 30 minutes. He can't stay away from me. LOL!!! Just kidding!!! (It sounded good though!) :)

Will do on the ISM thing. I just have to plan like 10-15 days as I have so many people to see and so much to do when I go home.

Steph, I am sure that all your friends will come to play at some point today. I know you miss them all, but don't put your ball away yet, its still early in the day.

Oh, I am not! Trae will be around, but Bear has the week off, I don't expect him around. :)

It's okay... I have fun with everyone else... just missin' the rest of the crew. ;)

Just looking at the open time for tomorrow, and I will be the only reserve able to do that trip. So I will have to do some research and see how far away the Cradle Musuem is. I would hate to rent a car, but I can get on the train if it is close.


What's the Cradle Museum like?


It's a nice little museum that does alot with the space they have. I liked it when I went earlier this year.
