MY REVIEW OF THE INNX QUILTED WATERPROOF PETS CARGO LINER

I received compensation  in exchange for writing this review. Although this post is sponsored, all opinions are my own.

Hello all,

I have recently purchased a new car and have been doing my best to keep it looking clean. One thing I have really been wanting is a liner for the back. I am always hauling things like groceries and such. So when I have recently received an INNX quilted waterproof pets cargo liner for my car I was thrilled. 

I was pleasantly surprised when I opened the box. This liner is simply amazing. It is very thick and padded in case you needed to transport your pets to keep them extra comfy. It attaches to the back of your headrests so it stays in place. The straps are reinforced so they won't rip or tear. The liner itself is made of very durable, material. The extra large size gives you plenty of coverage even if you have a large SUV. It was plenty of coverage for my car, even if I put the back seats down! Its also perfect for tailgating! This is a high quality product at a great price!

The INNX quilted waterproof pets cargo liner is now available on amazon for $89.99. through this link http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M8NN94T.  So if you're looking for a high quality cargo liner, this is it!  #SUVCARGOLINER   #SUVCARGOCOVER

MY REVIEW OF THE MANOR PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING DINNER THEATRE

I received compensation of free tickets in exchange for writing this review. Although this post is sponsored, all opinions are my own.

Hello all,

I have recently had the pleasure to get free tickets to see a new dinner theatre in Orlando. I love dinner theatres, so I was really looking forward to it. It is the Manor Professional Wrestling Dinner Theatre. Though I know the concept sounded a little weird at first, we were in for a real treat.

MY REVIEW OF THE MANOR PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING DINNER THEATRE

When we first arrived my husband stopped for an adult beverage on our way in. They had a band already playing up on the stage in the ring, and they actually sounded really good.  The ring was large and very professional looking, with many long tables and seats around it. Then we took our seats to  delicious salads already waiting for us, with water or coffee if desired.  The band played a few songs, then it was time for the wrestling show. Being a big fan of wrestling, my husband loved it! The Mc announced the first 2 wrestlers. They were all dressed up in their intimidating garb, while the music played menacingly. Colorful lights were flashing about.They said their back and forth insults like expected then time for the match. There was no holding back. It was non stop action with flips and tumbles, and body slams. A winner was announced, and he received the first winners medallion of the night.

MY REVIEW OF THE MANOR PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING DINNER THEATRE

After a few spectacular matches, we were given the rest of our dinner. A delicious feast of grilled chicken, garlic mashed potatoes, and green beans and carrots. To top it off, a delicious slice of cheesecake for dessert! The it was time for the rest of the matches. What a display of athleticism seeing them throwing each other around the ring. You could hear the audience getting excited as they routed for their favorites! It was really a night of fun, one we won't forget, If you love wrestling then this dinner theatre is for you!

MY REVIEW OF THE SENSATIONAL COMEDY HYPNOTIST RICH ALEXANDER

I received compensation of free tickets in exchange for writing this review. Although this post is sponsored, all opinions are my own.

Hello all,

Last night me and my husband were gifted free tickets to a comedy hypnotist in exchange for my review. I have never seen a hypnotist, so I didn't know what to expect. I figured there maybe a few people there, and the tickets were free so why not.

MY REVIEW OF THE SENSATIONAL COMEDY HYPNOTIST RICH ALEXANDER

Little did we know we were in for the time of our lives. We went to see comedy hypnotist Rich Alexander. The show was hilarious! I laughed so much I had tears in my eyes. I have always been skeptical of hypnotists, but after last night's show, I'm not anymore. His act is based on audience participation and he asks for volunteers, which there was no shortage of. He was playing to a packed house. Then he lets everyone know he will not embarrass anyone and he makes sure it's clean, not R rated, so it's fun for all audiences. 

MY REVIEW OF THE SENSATIONAL COMEDY HYPNOTIST RICH ALEXANDER

With a snap of his finger and the sound of his voice he had the volunteers doing all kinds of funny stuff. From doing ballet, to playing in a heavy metal band, to eating an ice cream that turned into a hot pepper. He had them believing they were doing these things and many more. It was so funny to see their expressions and their actions as they carried out his hypnotic suggestions. I have never laughed so hard in my life! My favorite part was when he told them they were all belly dancers. That was priceless!

MY REVIEW OF THE SENSATIONAL COMEDY HYPNOTIST RICH ALEXANDER

At the end of the show he gave them a positive hypnotic suggestion regarding how they see themselves in a positive light when they loook into a mirror. When he woke them up, he asked them all how long did they think they were up there. Most said about 20 minutes, when in reality it was 1 1/2 hours. Rich Alexander is definitely a master of his craft. I can sum his show up in one word, amazing! You can book him for your next event. Believe me, you will not be disappointed.

MY REVIEW OF THE SENSATIONAL COMEDY HYPNOTIST RICH ALEXANDER

The tickets were an affordable $15. They were given to us from the owners of where the event was held, the Trinity Meeting Center. They are two of the nicest people you could meet. They have many rooms available for renting for meetings, parties, conferences and such. They had refreshments available for donations, and the rooms are large and clean. Please keep them in mind for your next rental needs.

THE GUIDE TO SURVIVING FLORIDA VOLUME 1

COME AND EXPLORE OUR COUNTRY'S OLDEST CITY OF ST. AUGUSTINE

Hello all,

Florida has a lot of places to see and visit and one of my favorite places is St. Augustine. It lays claim to being the oldest city in the U.S.  It is known as the Ancient City. It was founded 42 years before Jamestown. and 55 years before the Pilgrims arrived. St Augustine was founded by the Spanish explorer and admiral, Pedro Menéndez de Avilés in 1565. It still has a historic district lined with cobblestone streets that today are bustling with shops , delicious restaurants, and inns.

 It is home to the Ponce De Leon's Fountain of Youth Archaeological Park. At the park there is a small fountain they say they believe was his fountain of youth and you can purchase bottles of water from the fountain. The park has many recreated Spanish and Tucuman Indian buildings you can walk in and explore. They also have guides dressed in period costumes that will tell you tales of life back then.  When we were there they had a demonstration with an ancient canon. A very nice place to visit.

 The city is home to the  Castillo De San Marco's, which is the oldest masonry fort in North America and the only one in the continental U.S. from the 17th century still standing. It is constructed of coquina rock and took 23 years to build. It has guarded St. Augustine for 300 years and is very well preserved and open to the public. This place is huge.

The city is also home to the world's oldest Ripley's Believe It Or Not that opened in 1950. It can also boast being home to the nation's oldest wooden schoolhouse built in 1716. The school house has a small museum inside. Also there is the St. Augustine Lighthouse Tower that was built in 1874. It houses a maritime museum and is believed to be very haunted. When we were there we did notice a few strange noises and saw things like a light coming on in another room. In fact, St. Augustine is reputedly one of the most haunted places in the country. You can take one of many ghost tours, or stay at its very own haunted St. Francis Inn. . St. Augustine is also home to the Potter Wax Museum, which is the oldest museum in the U.S. and has over 160 figures. Then there is one of Florida's oldest attraction St. Augustine  Alligator Farm and Zoological Park which opened in 1893.

 This city is so rich in history. But let's not forget its beautiful beaches, it is after all Florida. Its beaches stretch for more than 20 miles. Its most popular is Vilano Beach, which offers a fishing pier, para sailing, sea do rentals, picnic shelters and outside showers. Vehicles are even permitted on this beach. There are also the Ponte Vedra Beach, Crescent Beach, Anastasia State Park Beach, and St. Augustine Beach to name a few.

There's plenty to do and whatever you choose. you'll have a lot of fun visiting St. Augustine.
