Crazy Ted’s After-Scare Bar

A few nice rehab facility images I found:

Didn’t know they had redneck bars in the walled enclaves of Florida’s golf communities, but there was Crazy Ted’s. Just the -beer tonic I needed after dad’s transfer to a rehab facility and subsequent angina attack.

His nurse didn’t respond when he hit his call button, so he called us. Twice. I took off there and got there in about 15 minutes and the nurse was just finishing up. He had gotten his nitro and was back to normal.

A brief discussion — I was extremely nice and tactful — alerted them to the fact that while they may have limited staff and many residents, this resident may not be able to make a 2nd call the next time, so they had best respond pronto.

I stayed there w/ him for a couple hours sleeping in a chair and left about 12:30.

Crazy Ted’s seemed to literally beckon on the way home.

This is at the Florida Keys Wild Bird Center. In addition to being a licensed rehab facility and having a nice plot of natural habitat, the center also tosses fish to the local wild birds. I’m not sure I approve (alright, I’m sure that I don’t approve — except insofar as it might constitute a ‘halfway house’ for rehabbed birds that they’ve released locally), but I wasn’t above snapping a few pics of the customers at feeding time.
