I will be in St. Pete Beach from the 1st through the 9th. We always seem to eat and go to the same places. We want to do some different stuff. I want to go to the Spectre plant, do they have tours? Any other ideas?

They build center consoles there now. Cats were bought and shipped to the west coast.

Great New Years Party. Visit www.13uglymen.com and purchase an invite. Definitely a great time.

Best Breakfast on the beach is in Pass-a-Grille - The Seahorse

The Spectre shop is about 20 - 25 minutes from the beach on 66th street.

Guess I'll scratch Spectre off the list. Don't really have any desire to see CC's. When did that all occur. I knew Spectre was sold, when was the production moved to the West Coast?

This past year, Scott Conrad bought the sport boat division of Spectre.

What about some fine dining places?

Grille 29 at Channelside in Tampa is great.
