Extreme barshopping, Brevard edition

Bunny and I stepped into DD Bullwinkels Outdoors (which used to be next door to Rocky's Grill and Soda Shop but moved about a block away in the former Belk store on Main St.) so Bunny could pick up an Eclipse 2017 shirt.

Apparently, the big thing in Brevard is “barshopping,” where a store will have an indoor bar:

[Sadly, they do not have Stone Ruination DIPA on tap or in bottles.]

This isn't the first store we've seen that does this. It's just the first one with an impressive setup.


Extreme reminders, Brevard edition

I found this sign at Underground Storage (yet another business here who's web presence is on MyFaceGoogleLinkedBookPlusInSpace making it hard to link to):

[I drove 760 miles north from Ft. Lauderdale and what happens? I'm told to keep Ft. Lauderdale clean.]

I found it ironic (which I don't think is actually “ironic”, ironically enough).

No AI was used in the making of this site, unless otherwise noted.

You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go ahead, I won't bite. I promise.

The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent links to that entry only. The format for the links are simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are interested in, say 2000/08/01, so that would make the final URL:

https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01

You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.

You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that important.
