How exotic

This weekend has been one for exotic pets. On Friday we met a monkey and today we met a macaw. Here's a photo of Leesburg couple Jazmen and Derryck, who shared their ball pythons with the crowd. They were the first locals I’ve met so far.

Way to go, Angel!

Angel Rosario of Ocala won Best in Show on Saturday in the Full Throttle contest for an amazing Harley custom cholo.

Before that, we caught some of the zany biker games. In one, bikers passed under an archway while passengers tried to bite in half a suspended hotdog. Check out the video:

What a difference a day makes

There's a much bigger crowd and louder today than Friday. The Main Street sidewalks are jam-packed. Thankfully, the sun isn't in overdrive.

We’ve had more overcast skies and breezes so far this afternoon in time for Fat Timmy on the Budweiser stage. Loads of fun and energetic, getting the crowd dancing and toe-tapping. The Orlando band's set ranged from old school Jamaican vibes to two-tone kind of stuff to bass-slappy wah-wah pedal third-wave stuff a la Sublime and Chili Peppers. We heard a tribute to "Supafly" by Curtis Mayfield when we left to get food.

I had my heart set on Shepherd's Fries at McCracken's, but, alas, it wasn't meant to be. We wound up at Breakfast at Tiffany's -- yeah, it's open! I enjoyed a sausage gravy bomb and BLT. In case you're wondering, a sausage gravy bomb is biscuits and gravy but with all the good stuff inside the homemade biscuit. Heavenly and sinful at the same time.
