Florida Toll roads

50's retro made it very cool.
Clothing optional seemed to attract the gay men like a bug lite.
Made for quite the interesting trip to say the least.



One of my good friends was a swinger when he was married. I guess he still is now that he's divorced. Anyway, the stories I've heard come out of that place made ME blush. :$

I've stayed at the hotel next door quite a few times. On my honeymoon we were down there for 2 weeks. Our suite at The Reach was on the 3rd floor oceanfront. The very right corner of the property along Simonton and it overlooked the pool/pier area of Atlantic Shores. :o:o:o:o

For what it's worth, their diner up front was great! B|

Here's a little walk down memory pier for you.... :P

Key West with a friend years ago...we walk down a pier to watch sunset.
NOTHING BUTT nekkid dudes sunning on the pier - long pier too!

She says "I've never seen so many dicks in my life!"
Me: "I don't think any of them would do you any good."

:D



Maybe thats why Kenny Chesney loves Key West so much!:D:D:D:D:):)

There are no tolls on I95 or I4. The various roads around them however...if you're flying into Orlando there should be zero problem getting a car with an e tag.

BeeLine 528 and East West Expressway Orl. Fla. turnpike. Fastest way to the DZs all toll. Last I was there anyway. Been awhile.

I feel it, when I sorrow most;

Than never to have loved at all.

The BeeLine is now called the BeachLine. I think it was changed to help the tourists find the beach because, you know, just heading east to the Atlantic was just too damn confusing. :ph34r: The locals still all call it the BeeLine though.

We get that around here, too. Ummmm..... EAST. How freaking difficult could that be? I know people, who when they've been asked for directions to the beach, just say "Shoobies go home!"

You have to admit, Some beaches are prettier than others. Like Jax.... Daytona beach is so much better than Jax beach.

******Many (probably most) car rental companies will also rent you a toll pass; it generally only applies to whatever state you rent the car in, and it's about $3/day (which for a long rental is probably not great).

You can just avoid most of them -- there are reasonably good free alternatives to tolls in most of the country. If you stick to the US highways (white shield with a number, rather than red-white-blue), they're rarely toll roads.

Florida Turnpike and I95 are my main ones staying off the them would significantly increase the driving time I think. (already near 5 hrs)

I believe the FL toll roads still have a cash option.

FL is a heavy tourist state so going Etoll only wouldn't be good.

The crosstown expressway in Tampa is E-toll only. Though they do have an option of 'Bill you later' by snapping pictures of your license plate, finding your registration and sending you a bill... but that's probably going to cost more.

You can buy a SunPass transponder (get the suction cup one) for $30ish at any Publix and just activate it linked to a credit card. That should cover any toll roads in FL I believe.

Yeah, do anything besides the one what superglues to your windshield. I picked mine up in Florida City at the top of the Keys over the summer. I think I only had to pay a $5 deposit on a credit card. Besides the Publix, I know you can get them at any of the big rest areas. There's signs all over telling you they're available.

Hmmm.... time to re-up my SunPass balance. B|B|B|
