Worthy of a Try and More Becoming Martin County’s most popular restaurant, Berry Fresh brings to life to an old building that was once Golden Corral and Don Ramon’s. The parking lot is always full from 8:00 to 3:00, the operating hours. There are plenty comfortable booths and tables with an inviting bar area which makes this place inviting. The…
A Place to Consider in Downtown Stuart Located in historic Stuart, the Boat House is an ideal location overlooking the St. Lucie River. On Sunday’s there is usually music playing next door with the outside amphitheater. The ambiance inside the Boathouse is fun with a nautical theme. My wife have had the quesadilla several times and liked it. I…
The Free Coffee is Wonderful My first stop is always to the free coffee that is offered in a one ounce cup near the front middle of the store. Usually there are four varieties that are offered. There is cream and sugar and it is well attended. You can actually, too, purchase a cup for a buck, the best…
Saturday’s Marina Market–come hungry! Downtown Ft. Pierce has come a long way in its revitalization. There is an interesting mixture of old and new. One of those efforts in revitalization is the “Downtown Market” every Saturday morning along the marina. It is an extremely inviting place to visit. We have been to the Saturday Market several times. There are quite…
There is only one Turquoise Room We came for a late lunch. La Posada is an iconic restaurant and hotel, not only of Winslow, but all of Arizona and the American Southwest. The Turquoise Room restaurant is aptly named for its tranquility and great food. It is the best restaurant in eastern Arizona. The prices are reasonable and the ambiance…

This is a place for “history aficionados.” We thoroughly enjoyed visiting this landmark hotel built in 1930. La Posada was the last of the Fred Harvey hotels built…

Easy to miss, but a place you will never forget On the eastern end of Winslow is a small memorial park, known as “Remembrance Garden,” dedicated to everyone involved in 9/11. It is easy to miss and drive by as the two Twin Tower girders look like poles from a distance. I think it was the flag and the uniqueness…
Best kept secret of Oahu The memorial park is easy to get to from Honolulu by taking Route 63, Likelike Highway and turning left on Route 83 on the windward (eastern) side of the island. The 1968 replica of the 11th century Buddhist temple complex was our main reason to visit this area. You will immediately realize it is…
