It's Raining...what to do?
 

It's a wash-out in Gainesville....most of us have a favorite time waster or a specific task that occupies the time on days when the event is on "weather hold".

Let's hear a few of your best.

Hookers ?


No seriously though, I carry hobbies (usually a camera with me to work on or other things, hell run down to the Toy Store and buy a couple cans of spray paint and a Model of your car ? How long has it been since you built a Model ?

When done give it to your kids, or a kid "fan" or someone looking at your ride, you can make 2 people happy for the price of 1 , you get something to do and they get a shiny new "bauble" kids love new stuff and I PROMISE they will NEVER forget you.

Just an idea.....

At the Gators, go to Big Daddy's museum if you haven't been there in a while,

or go to Daytona ( bike week was last week and some schools have started their spring break ) for the younger group.

Hit the Brown Derby,Steak and Shake and Sonny's BBQ. Not all in one day though.

Yes, plese go to Sonny's and tell me how good it was. The garlic bread, pulled pork, tea ... oh my! I've eaten at Sonny's 3 or 4 times in a row when I get to Mooresville or Commerce. I've broken up with girlfriends before that wouldn't eat there with me. :eek: Oh, how I miss it. Wish they had one in Texas.

You must be old....... The Brown Derby burned down years ago


"In January 1995, a fire destroyed 10,000 of the building's 14,000 square feet. Investigators said arson was the cause, although who set it remains a mystery.

The building, its stone facade charred, sat empty for years. Eventually it was rebuilt and in 2000 opened as the Hoda Center, one of Gainesville's two Islamic centers."


I guess you could still go there and hang out.

DRINK, Had lots of practice doing that the last couple of seasons in D-1, with all the rain.

At Maple Grove, you can always go to Park Place Restaurant/Finish Line Pub across the street during a delayed/cancelled day.
