Harbour Freight I thought was known by all guys. In Canada we have "Canadian Tire" which also sell tires, but soooo much more so it is loved by the whole family to shop.Marlene Klopferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12045198557084106389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4167416104006761394.post-86166015236143228772021-12-13T16:55:38.683-05:002021-12-13T16:55:38.683-05:00Glad the comments worked again and appreciate the ...Glad the comments worked again and appreciate the effort.

Nice to see places decorated for Christmas and the temperatures are not bad either. <br />It is funny but Tom and I had never heard of Harbor Freight until our Canadian friends started talking about it.

Here in Mexico we put up tiny with lights and then add some Christmas hanging ornaments. Lovely that you have so many stores to visit with lots of choices.

Fun but frustrating like Nancy says. The park looks festive and great shots of the Crystal River area. Benno never met a Harbor Freight he didn't like, lol.We Two Travellers Living the Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11541569902729935406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4167416104006761394.post-87535945560464099532021-12-12T09:20:41.346-05:002021-12-12T09:20:41.346-05:00Those are PERFECT!
