So at this point you’ve probably already heard about Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.

Mid Century Modern refers to homes built between 1933 - 1965. But what defines Mid Century Modern style? In the 1950's the term was recognized as a style descriptor. Currently it is celebrated worldwide as a significant design movement. The goal was to bring modernism into America’s post–war suburbs.

Summertime in Florida can be a difficult time to find things to do with your family that will beat the heat. Fortunately, those that live in the Central Florida area have access to some of the most amazing hotels and pools not far away.
