the mrs. and i are heading down to boca raton fla. for a few days on the beach and basically doing nothing. i've never been, but from what i can gather from the internets, the average age is 70, and shopping is the favorite past time.

there's a high probability that i will need a night out at some point, so if you're in the area holler back, kay?

Through no fault of my own, I spent a week in Delray Beach.

That town's dead. Dead dead dead.

Dude, go to Piccolo... admission is three bucks and bike rental is five. Ride all day long in the sun.


We need to get back down there again.... sigh....

I grew up in Boca, there ain't s*** to do unless if you have a car and alot of money. Biking around the city blows, the streets are super wide and you get headwind no matter where you go. My suggestion, if you have a car, go north to Delray Beach, ~7-8min. and get off on Atlantic ave. make a left on Swinton, eat a burger at Doc's and 1 block down is a bad mother f**kin bar lounge called Dada's; one of the few places where the oldies stay away from. During the day, take Atlantic ave. all the way east to A1A till you get to the beach and enjoy the view of fake tits while you sip a bloody mary at Luna Rosa.
