Anyone have any experience shipping their cars here from out of state? Company? References? Experiences? Etc?
Looking to ship a car from Florida to Virginia ASAP!
How would I get car with no tags etc to Orlando to board auto train?
Got a ticket from a trooper for passing someone using the HOV lane. Is it cheaper to go to court or pay the fine? First time ever getting one of these.
Regardless of party affiliation, how does this not make the hair on the back of everyone’s neck stand up? A minority count making majority choices for the state is so anti-democracy? I don’t even align with democratic views so much but I feel like the reason most republicans aren’t interested in talking about this is because of the red state security, but anything can happen in politics. I feel like we handed our state government access to ignore the people’s vote on a silver platter, does anyone else see how unamerican this is? It’s making me feel very uneasy we gave up this power to them.
please don’t gloat or be a dick. i just want to know if anyone has heard anything about a protest or a women’s march of some kind that i can attend in broward. please let me know if there’s any kind of abortion rights rally, women’s rights rally, anti fascist protest, anything like that coming up in the next 6 months or so. thanks.
Looking to run away and catch a tan for Thanksgiving weekend. Any suggestions for a non-touristy beach town? Not looking for a resort, just want to get a room withing walking distance from the beach and some fine dining.
Advice for parking at Kaseya for events? I bought a ticket to a concert and it did not let me purchase parking (like it did for a previous concert I went to earlier this year). I’ve done a bit of googling and there don’t seem to be many other options aside from the Kaseya garage, but if I can’t purchase parking there ahead of time how can I be sure I can get a spot on the day of the event? Further context—the tickets are for my dad and my mom, who uses a mobility scooter and has a heat sensitivity so not a lot of wiggle room to park very far away. Should they get there super early to secure parking? Are there other convenient garages or parking nearby? Is there a way to purchase parking at the Kaseya garage ahead of time somehow?
Why is it so expensive to have a micro wedding? I am trying to find a location to host a beautiful ceremony and that is it. For 20 ish people and then do a private restaurant dinner. I want a location where we can have the ceremony and do the photos after. Open to indoor or outdoor but would like shade if outdoor. Why does this seem so hard here in South FL? I don't want to pay $8k to have a 30 min ceremony outside.
Since I like to watch movies on VHS sometimes, I was curious if thrift stores, pawn shops, or even bookstores still have VHS tapes in Palm Beach County, Fort Lauderdale or Miami areas?
Will be visiting Boynton Beach for over a week starting on Tuesday November 5 to see my grandmother. Thanks!

We are spending a week (November 5 - 13) in South Florida. My paternal grandmother lives in Boynton Beach. I enjoy eating out at restaurants.
What is one restaurant that is worth eating out? I don't mind Italian, Deli, Seafood, Chinese or Mexican.
Preferably in Palm Beach County, somewhere around Boynton Beach / Delray Beach area. Thanks!
I say this based on what took place here in California with marijuana legalization. People from other states started coming here in droves just to smoke that stinky drug. Especially as California is a very large producer of marijuana and has a variety of qualities contributed partly to the year round growing climate we have all over the state. I have met people from Florida and even other countries coming here for both tourism and to smoke marijuana. A lot of these people have been very problematic here in California in regards to buying up limited housing, criminal theft, some new attitudes, crowding of hospitals for physical and mental ailments, and harming the environment with poorly regulated growth and smoking. My position is legalize marijuana in all ways and regulate it where people don’t smoke it literally everywhere or put it in the milk babies drink from.
For Florida, Florida already has loads of tourists and new residents. Many residents even coming from outside the United States. All of Florida including the northern part, also has a climate very suitable for growing marijuana. With this, it is guaranteed business that will take place in Florida along with the illegal businesses already there selling this and the medical marijuana there. Resulting very likely in a new economic shift to the state that happened in California along with a lot if the same things that came to California. Also meaning that if you don’t get rid of Ron DeSantis this time around, you will very likely have a much easier time the following election as the new residents will both outvote the people who came for no covid-19 regulations and also drive them to leave. Then again, a lot of you who complain about tourists and new residents will definitely get even more annoyed by them.
So I ask you Florida from Northern California. Please vote to legalize recreational marijuana. Take some of the burden off of us here in California. Free your state of DeSantis’s nonsense. Make the marijuana lovers of your state happy. Make money off of this. Take a bunch of the annoying people from my state and make them your problem. No. We don’t want them back. That extra money from them isn’t worth it for us and we already have way more than enough anyways. We also save money on housing with them away. They would indeed raise your cost of housing quite a bit and that is already quite an issue in Florida. Also on California money which would increase prices faster. Still though, take them in. Split the burden. We are both beach paradise states that so many want to live in. It is only fair Florida. Do your part.
Looking for chill places to work in loxahatchee/wellington area.
I love old cars and I am going on vacation from November 5 to November 13 to Boynton Beach to see my grandmother.
Are there classic car shows or cruise nights happening in between November 5 and 13. Somewhere around Boynton Beach, Delray Beach, or other areas of Palm Beach County? Not ruling out Fort Lauderdale area.
Thanks!
I'm going to Boynton Beach to visit my paternal grandmother. While I'm primarily coming down to see her, I will be there for a week from November 5-13.
Since I love reading, I was curious to see if there are any bookstores or thrift stores around Palm Beach County area (especially near Boynton or Delray) that actually sell used books.
What are used bookstores or thrift stores in Palm Beach County that sell used books?
Thanks!
P.S. I'm from Connecticut and I like to browse used books
Flying in to SoFl and the homes on the lake look stunning. When it rains, how often do the homes/pools have water coming? Before I bought my home, I looked at one on a lake but was too afraid of flooding and gators. What's the 411?

Just got a ticket for 97 in a 65 from FHP this morning. Im 17. Ticket is just for unlawful speed and not careless driving. And there was no option for reckless driving. It says he paced for 400ft to measure my speed, and I have a court date. I’m thinking about ticket clinic because my friends recommend, but I don’t know anything about this kinda stuff so advice would be appreciated. And I know I’m stupid
Anyone have good recs for Brazilian restaurants or bars in South Florida? Bonus points if they show Brasileiro Série A matches (Brazilian soccer league)
Hey folks, our condo is 4 stories. 2 elevators, both turned off with printer paper signs saying "out of order" taped to the doors. They have been like this for 3 weeks with no communication from the HOA. My aunt is elderly and being released from the hospital, but cannot possible navigating multiple floors of stairs. What are our rights here? Who can we contact for help?
Hey all, I'm a Floridian living abroad, but will be in south Florida for a few weeks in December. Right in the middle of my trip, I'll be 20 weeks pregnant, and would ideally be getting the 20 wk ultrasound to scan for any potential issues.
I already called my former gynaecologist office but they said they can't do it unless I register as a patient.
Anyone know of a place that can do this for non residents/without needing to formally register? Also any idea of costs would help a lot too. Thanks!
