My friend's dad was the former Mayor of Indian Rocks Beach and there's Clearwater where the scientologists are headquartered and there's Clearwater Beach, and tons of beach towns in between IRB and Clearwater Beach.
Your brother can tell you about scientology. There might be some freeper scientologists and I don't discuss that topic on FR but that's where they have a big hotel, etc. They do have Christmas parties though and my brother got to play drums for Chick Corea and another time with Edgar Winter.
lol, no wonder Mikel keeps saying his job is cut out for him. He is Southern Baptist. I am going to have to find out about Scientology. It has been coming up in conversations a lot lately.
My Uncle use to have a hearing aid store at Countryside Mall, but moved it out of that Mall when they were redoing it. It is still called Countryside Hearing something or the other.
The Fowler family is well represented in the area - even a street named after an uncle. The Frey side hasn't made their mark yet unless Uncle Bob has been elected mayor and that wouldn't surprise me in the least!!!!
