Dunedin’s British Invasion

Penny Lane, The Ultimate Beatles Collection in Dunedin, Florida, is now open to the public!

The museum is the creation of long-time Dunedin resident and humanitarian Dr. Robert Entel. As a medical student in England in the eighties, Dr. Entel began collecting Beatles memorabilia. Over the course of thirty plus years, Dr. Entel has acquired many personal items from John Lennon’s Estate as well as George Harrison’s Estate. Penny Lane contains many extremely rare and highly collectible mementos from signed guitars to strands of Beatles hair.

The museum is located at 730 Broadway on the 2nd floor of Stirling Commons in Downtown Dunedin. Hours of operation are Monday, Wednesday and Friday from noon to 4:00 pm or by special arrangement by calling 727-281-8130. This collection is definitely worth crossing the pond for!

No Florida Gravy Trains

Florida lawmakers may allow a $511 million "gravy train" contract to go to a politically connected operator who just dropped a "rare" $40,000 political donation. The agency has spent $350,000 of your money on lobbyists and lawyers to protect this "massive deal," even though it's under inspector general investigation. Only your lawmakers can stop this gravy train from leaving the station. here
-----------------------
State Reps. Neil Combee, Chris Latvala, and Dan Raulerson sit on a committee that can end the gravy train at its next legislative "stop."
