OUR MOTORING HERITAGE

Posted by: Rick Pariani in Local Events, Travel, WGV Events
 

Vacation_Car_Clipart-3LGMost visitors to our region recognize its natural beauty – and its relation to the Atlantic Ocean and the St. Johns River. Ours is a distinctly out-door place where recreation comes easily.

Fishing, beachcombing, surfing, hiking, biking, boating and golfing are the activities that first come to mind. But, our opportunities and choices for recreation and entertainment are world-class. Coupled with our wonderful-winter-weather and comfortable fall and spring days – the months from November through May afford uniquely memorable, motoring events.

In close proximity and easily accessed, you can satisfy your diverse interests every weekend.

Start with a visit to the Turkey Rod Run, at least once – even if you aren’t shopping for a weekend special. This show and sale is the premier east coast car event and swap meet, staged throughout the 4 day Thanksgiving weekend inside the Daytona International Speedway.  Thousands of cars are displayed for both competition and sale and virtually every part you need for restoration and customizing is available. This is the place for you to buy that car of your youth or dreams.

Pet Sitting for the Holidays

Posted by: Peyton Davidson in Uncategorized
 

Dogs-and-Cats2The holidays get hectic, but between shopping for presents and packing for travel we need to remember our furry friends! There are plenty of people located in or around our St. Augustine golf course community that would be happy to help take care of our feline or canine family members.

For in-home pet care, give All Ears Pet Sitting a call at 904-687-9610. Pets are more relaxed in their own environments surrounded by familiar sights, sounds, and smells. You don’t’ have to worry about dropping your animal off or picking it up. They are available for vacations, holidays, business travel, mid-day dog walking, and transportation to and from the vet and groomer.
