Tangerines


The tangerine is a citruis fruit of the mandarine orange variety. It is sweeter and smaller than most oranges, but the best thing about them is that they're so much easier to peel than an orange. Althought they can be consumed in a variety of ways, like in salads, preserves or juice, I prefer to just peel and it.

Planespotting

Planespotting (aka Aircraft spotting) is a hobby based on observing, photographing, and some times logging registration numbers of aircrafts. These may be airliners, helicopters, gliders, balloons, or other powered aircraft. There are a large variety of planespotters, each with a personal view and idea of the hobby. Some may be interested in specific aircraft models, some prefer to focus on the various unique markings or paint color schemes, and yet others might just be fascinated by a particular manufacturer. Some planespotting hobbyists will listen-in to air traffic controller radio transmissions using radio scanner (where the use of radio scanners is legal), while others are perfectly satisfied by just sitting under a shady tree and watching aircraft landings and take-offs. As for me, I’m happy just taking pictures and sharing them with the world - happy planespotting.

Doral Classic Car Show

Cruising for a Cure


JC Bermudez Park Doral played host to “Cruising for a Cure” as part of the 2009 Relay for Life Weekend in Doral. The weekend, which raised more than $120,000 to benefit the American Cancer Society, brought a variety of classic and custom cars from the 1930s to present day autos. So which car won Best in Show? this pristine, jet-black, 60's Plymouth Road Runner.


My entry, an original 1988 Porsche 944, looked good in its first competition. Future Best in Show? Maybe...
