Since the Art of Brick was upstairs at Faneuil Hall we hung out downstairs after.
Looking up.
Seating is hard to find…..unless your JMan!
Looking up again.
The boys horsing around outside.

This is a fun show to see. As tomorrow is the last day for this show in Boston you may have to see it elsewhere.
Go carting
The Quinn boys went racing today. We went to, or should I say we finally ended up at the Tri-State Speedway in Dudley MA. It’s a long way from us but worth the drive.
The track and cars are in great shape. Thankfully we were racing against our self so the cars were cranked up. The cars can be governed wireless from the pit area. So if you bump, crash or there’s a crowd they can slow the cars remotely.
JMan and I shared where GMan had his own cart and we screamed around. Here we are at the starting gate.
JMan and I under speed.
GMan on the straightaway.
Final score and JMan and I best lap time.
This would be a great place for a birthday. Go here for more info.
Duck 🔑 – Day 5
Up, breakfast, pack, hit the road. Note to self. Avoid Miami International Airport next time I’m in Miami! It’s way to big for its own good. Just because you have a few thousand acres to spare does not mean you need to use it.
Anyhow…..hi-lights in the airport.
1. I found a Starbucks
2. GMan and I spotted Damian Marley (Bob Marley’s son)
How JMan gets comfortable on airport seats.
Duck 🔑 – Day 4
Mother Nature decided to cry this am so we all lay around watching tv. When it cleared the kids played ping pong and I played a round of mini golf.
As tradition would have it we found the only Chinese restaurant within 50 miles. Of course it was open on December 25th. I’m not sure what I ate but it’s safe to say I won’t miss it.
On the way out of the parking lot I noticed a cargo container with what looked like a kitchen fan on the roof. I was afraid to look inside.
Look to the left of the closet door on the top of the cargo container. It’s one of those, don’t ask moments.
I also like the tin can catching something dripping from the vent coming through the wall. To say the Keys are jaded is an understatement!
Natures symmetry.
Photos from a beach down the road a bit.
Like our own Route 1 you can probably get anything you want, need or desire on this Route 1.
Duck 🔑 – Day 3
Today we are touring around to see what the Keys have to offer. We didn’t go far just down Route 1 a bit more.
First stop….the price of my wake up call is $3.15 for a tall coffee, that’s small in Dunkin Donuts language! Paradise is not cheap, but it’s worth every cent.
Reflection of JMan and I.
7 mile bridge is seven miles long.

Happy Holidays to all.
Duck 🔑 – Day 2
Word of the day…..relax.
Jess finds a good spot by the pool.
The boys float on by.
Kayaking and paddle boarding…..in terms of activity, not really technically.
Family shot next to a cool mural in the way to the movies.
In the movies. This place is a throw back…..to say the least.
Duck 🔑 – Day 1
FL trip – Day 1
We took a rest while getting from the gate to the baggage claim. Perfect time for a family shot.
Apparently I devices work in FL also!
So many choices.
GMan and JMan mucking about in the Laguna.
Nothing like a thatch roof.

Should I be be concerned!
Kids holiday concert
GMan and JMan’s holiday concert was Friday and we all went. The boys did very well and fun was had by all. Lenore came up from NJ and stayed a few day.
The whole gang.
