Some are silent, whilst others are narative.
So grab a box of popcorn, a bottle of coke, sit back and enjoy the ride!

The LONG BEAUTIFUL PEACEFUL ENJOYABLE TRIP TO FLORIDA

We're almost there kids...........

Be watchful of the Smokeys on your drive

We'll get out, stretch our legs, Fill Up the Gas Tank, and Grab our Favorite... Stuckey's Pecan Log!

Don't forget the Pecan Log, gotta have it! 'How I miss back then'

And an Ice Cold Bottle of Coca Cola to go. For Everyone!

Just like I imagined..... when I closed my eyes for the FloridaPast Tour

When traveling to highways of FloridaPast, one must always think of Stuckey's

A Reminder of what was, Once FloridaPast

Welcome to Florida, the Land of Sunshine and Orange Juice

The Beauty of it All. The Serenity. The Fresh Squeezed Orange Juice they would give you at the border. You knew you were in Florida. These days, you could'nt tell, sorry to say.

We topped our gas tank off, had our widshield washed, filled the trunk with oranges, and again, we're off to FloridaPast

Stuckey's of Perry, FloridaPast - We stopped for a fill up

Can Ya'll remember? I'm sure yah can.... it was a time of serene travel

Stuckey's Coca Cola and Texaco Three Icons of FloridaPast

If we wood'a Known then, what we didn't know today.....

Should'a grabbed all the FloridaPast souvenirs, and stashed em away for Florida Today

When building our FloridaPast Tours, it was thought we would keep the like with the like. Or in otherwords, keeping some kind of order. You'll soon find out, if you haven't already, there is no order. Especially with our Roadside and Highways of FloridaPast Tours. As I find an image or interesting content, I place it where, at that particular moment, my mind tellz me to.
And as I build FloridaPast, I realize, it's Much Better Not having order. Making it a more Interesting Tour down the Highways. It's boring if you know whatz up ahead, but by not knowing what to expect, it builds Excitement. This is why, when we travel the Real Life Highways, it's Always Best to leave the mainstream, and meandor down the country roads and forgotten highways.

A trip to FloridaPast, wouldn't be complete without Simple Simon and the Pie Man - North to South, South to North

Perhaps this is your vision of FloridaPast

We are here, in Florida, the Sunshine State

Now if we can Only Find the Highway Back to FloridaPast........

Because Stuckey's always reminds the past highway travelers of a more simpler time, especially when visiting FloridaPast,
we decided to add more Stuckey's views
for your enjoyment

I personally can remember stopping at Stuckey's whilst traveling the highways of yesteryear.

I'm sure I stopped at this particular Stuckey's a few times throughout the FloridaPast times of traveling

As once said; You don't know you'll miss it, till it's gone
