There are lots of Florida roadside attractions & abandoned places along US Highway 41 near Brooksville, Florida Including Coney Island Drive In where Elvis Presley once ate, and also the headless Brontosaurus. Let’s hit the road and explore some Old Florida scenary along our way. There’s is much ahead.

It drizzled a little but that actually made it a little spooky/fun for my birthday. Anyway thanks for taking and recording these roadside attraction videos. I hope to see more.

I’ve been curious about Coney Island Drive in...now I have to go, lots of photo ops there. The mermaids downtown are part of a fairly new activity in Brooksville, The Florida Mermaid Trail. They have a facebook page and website. It’s a walking trail/tour 😁. What a bizarre thing about the headless dinosaur; you’d think by now that someone would have finished it. Kind of sad that no one did. The May-Stringer house has a great history, be sure to check it out. They also go live on facebook fairly often when there’s good paranormal activity. I’m not certain I believe in all of that but it’s still fun. It was also on my list of things to see but was derailed by the pandemic 😳. Sooner or later it’ll happen. Thanks for the tour & take care 😎🧜🏼‍♀️

Good video Jay. Do they still have that statue of the Confederate soldier at the courthouse? There was controversy to have it removed. Those buildings look like an abandoned housing project. There articles about that too. Livery pronounced with a short i. That turquoise Chevy at the end was beautiful. I think my dad had one. Also, Brooksville country club was built around an old quarry, and 4 of the holes go into the quarry.
