Frost in Naples

Just got back from a week in Naples, Florida, beautiful weather, the beach, everything was fantastic, especially with the brutal winter we've had here in the Northeast. Finally, a winter that surpassed the snow depths I recall as a kid.

Nevertheless, no shortage of plummage in the Naples social scene, and I must say that between the beach, the restaurants, on the streets, even the salesman in the Tommy Bahama store, I saw more frost on people's wrists in a week than I see at home in months. From what I could tell, I was the only one wearing a stainless steel Rolex - Two Tones, YG's, PCL's were all over the place. Plus a few Hublot's and other testerone infused models. My "under the radar" Explorer I was barely at tree top level by comparison.

And...Happy Spring today !

Six figure cars are a dime a dozen though. And I almost got killed by an octogenarian in a masserati while riding my bike on three oaks

I agree. Near the Waterside shops and Carabba's, there were several SS sightings.
