Dear JABBERS:
It must be winter in Ft. Lauderdale. The traffic has increased dramatically, and I can hardly drive to the grocery store without running over enthusiastic tourists heading out on a cruise. That is one of the hazards on living in a vacationer's paradise. This is the time of year that makes me want to hide, but I challenge you (and me) to get out and find out what our northern neighbors are enjoying. Check out the list of ideas on becoming a tourist in your own town. The weather is too beautiful to stay inside.
Enjoy & Happy JABBING,
- Courtney Stanford, Ft. Lauderdale Editor
