Hi there, my name is Tony Burgess (my friends call me T-Bird) from Chattanooga, Tennessee, USA. I am a believer, bleeding heart, idealist, and blogger. I'm married to Laura the Soup Diva and a dog dad to Frankie, Cody, and Mikey. Daily I work for a blood bank recruiting donors. My blog is where I chronicle and curate the sacred, serious, and silly things in my life. I am a member of The Episcopal Church. Thank you for connecting with me. Grace, peace, and love!
The number of taxi rides taken in Los Angeles has plummeted by nearly a third and the volume of prearranged taxi rides has fallen 42% since Lyft and Uber started operating in the area, city data shows. People took nearly 8.5 million taxi rides in 2012, a year before the two services started, but that…
The airport we flew into on our trip was 40 minutes east of Orlando in Sanford, FL. We took Uber to and from there and saved a ton of money over taxi, rental and shuttle. We recommend Uber to anyone needing a ride from one place to another in a big tourist town.
We made it home safely after our trip to Florida. After being away it feels weird to be in ones own living room watching ones own TV and realizing you are back to normal routines. At the moment I am contemplating what to do the rest of vacation which lasts until Sunday. Sometime this afternoon I might do a nap or something like that. I just hope my posts will still be as interesting.
We live in a world with eyes and lenses pointed at us all the time. It’s very Big Brother if you ask me. But it’s where we are now. Many of us are super social while some are under the watchful eye of cameras above our heads and on phones all round. Are we secure or under suspicion? Who knows anymore.
Today is our last full day here at Cabana Bay Beach Resort in Orlando, Florida. We have made the most of every moment here. The sun, the pools and so much more have given me a chance to unwind and relax which I have needed for awhile. I love this place for the memories and the fun.
