[quote=Anonymous]My parents have a condo in Indian Rocks Beach, FL and the drive across the "peninsula" (is that what it's called?) from the Tampa airport to the beach is always ...interesting. Four lane "highway" with strip malls and endless chain restaurants. Oh look, a 55+ senior trailer park community. Cracker Barrel. Pain management doctor's office. Five more strip malls. Walmart. Publix. Apartment complex. Another strip mall. Disheveled sunburnt shirtless man pushing a shopping cart along the sidewalk. Another strip mall. DENNIS HERNANDEZ HARVARD LAW SCHOOL GRADUATE AND PERSONAL INJURY LAWYER billboard. TJ Maxx. A group of boys who look to be about 14 walking down the road (it's 11am on a Tuesday). Mobile home community. Another personal injury lawyer billboard. Bible Bob's Christian Academy. iHop, CVS, Golden Corral, Chipotle, Olive Garden, McDonald's. Pet store with sign stating "all puppies and kittens 50% off today only!" Baptist Church. Drive up motel. RV park. Another Publix. Public elementary school. Dilapidated house with a car on blocks out front. Gas station. Souvenir shop. Denny's. Aaaand we've made it to the beach.

I feel like every single lower to middle class area in suburban Florida that I've ever been to follows this exact pattern. WHY?! [/quote]
