El Rushbo & Banyan Trees…

Today Jan and I drove around sightseeing in the ritzy areas of Palm Beach.

One of the places we wanted to drive by was Rush Limbaugh’s compound. 

You can’t see much from the road…

But the satellite view shows there’s a lot behind that gate…

Seems like I remember reading he paid $25 million for it.

While we were driving around, the thunderstorms were still rolling in, with the rain coming down in sheets.

One of the neat things around here are the banyan trees. Although normally associated with Africa and India, they seem to go real well around here.

We also drove by the famous Breakers Resort .

We had heard that they have a fabulous Sunday Brunch so we inquired about the price.

It was almost $100.00 per person! 

For that price it had better be goldplated and come with someone to hand feed you.

For lunch we ate at a Mexican restaurant called Amigos.

It was great. So great, in fact, we went back for supper.

Tomorrow we head north to Titusville for a few days.

More later…
