Roll it on a river

Heading north from Sebring on route 27. Bumper to bumper traffic, trucks, cars all going somewhere on a Thursday afternoon. So may traffic lights - so many stops. Strip mall scenery - boring at best.

An 18 wheeler breezes by and then another, open topped trucks overflowing with Florida's best. Oranges - oranges in April? Then, a small bump or divot in the road and wham-bam-thank you mam. Out pop Florida's finest and roll haphazardly across route 27. Banging and bumping hitting a few cars and rolling to the safety of the roadside.

Waiting for rot to engulf them. Florida's finest just rolling along.

Fresh Squeeeezed

Recently I went on a wonderful winter cruise. An all inclusive - almost. In the huge buffet area I noticed fresh squeezed orange juice. I ran right over there picked up a 4 ounce glass and then read the 'sign'. Fresh squeezed juice $3.99 a glass. An attendant rushed right over to help me with my fresh squeezed juice. I smiled and said, "No thank you."
I felt that was just cheap of the cruise line. Price gouging in my book.
Today, I walked over to my neighbors house and helped her pick fresh oranges and tangerines. I went home with two huge bags of fresh Florida fruit. I took out my trusty juicer and juiced away.
Nothing taste better than fresh squeezed orange and tangerine juice. And to think a cruise line had the audacity to charge almost $4.00 a glass.
