Hey Bill.. I don't have a password for the Hardy Palm and Subtropical Board. I guy by the name of Keith posted some pictures from Daytona. I swear they were taken at the Dream Inn where we always stay.. Can you ask him??

No problem Scott. I've spent so much time in the Daytona area over the years. I'd say at least a year of my life no B.S. I can't picture where the Dream Inn is to save my life. Is it in Daytona or Daytona Beach Shores? Anyways I post that for you now.

Ryan, you've got a healthy looking Trachy.
The long and lanky one might end up being the most beautiful with time.
Welcome aboard.

snow on palms look great. It will be a few years before I can post snow pics. I cover all my outdoor palms.

I just read the board.. That's funny eh? I guessed right. We have stayed there about 4 times. My wife and I have been talking for the past couple of days about heading there in March for a week. Especiall after today. About 6 inches of snow fell last night!

Scott that is funny, it made me look smart on the other board too 🙄 I spent Three months at oceans 5 across from Publix a few years ago but like I said I just can't picture the dream inn, so I google earthed it, now I know where it is and remember seeing it. After going through all the events down there I was ready to come home though. I might just see you guys down there in March too, I could show you guys some cool stuff I've found over the years.

I know where the Ocean condos are. They are on the same side as the dream inn but the Dream Inn is heading further south. About a 5 minute walk. There is a 7 11 right across the street. Yeah you did look pretty smart! Mr. Daytona! There is a drive into the beach right beside it. I can reember the name of the drive in. The turtle inn is almost next door and there is a Holiday Inn on the other side. I love Daytona Beach. Watched the Rolex 24hours of Daytona once. I have always wanted to go down for the 500. When we were there 2 years ago we watched the Shuttle take off! Night launch. Really cool!! When are you going in March?

Most likely towards the end of the month so I can bring a load back here, nothing set in stone. What about you guys?
Mr. Daytona 😆

My March break is the 11th to the 21st. So during that week.. I wish I could bring back a load of palms too!

You could always stop by my place when your here for that wedding and bring stuff back that way. Is that realistic or will you get busted by the palm police at the border. The prices might be worth taking a shot!

Scotty- You know you can bring back all the 'houseplants' you want from Florida, right? There is a loop-hole in the laws that says you don't need a phyto, as long as you're not planning to plant them outside.
If you're bringing palms back there won't be much hassle, since who would be dumb enough to plant palms in Esatern Canada?

That's really cool Paul. Is there any limit on how many "houseplants" you can bring back?
