Sailing on Zaca!

12 Dec

Ahoy All Good Flynnmates

Yesterday morning I had the zensational pleasure of swilling my first cup of “Zaca Tea”. Sent to me by a good friend and preeminent Flynnian scholar, I zealously recommend to all this elegant, inspiring and energizing blend of “super-teas”.

Here’s my very first Zaca, sailing over the Florida Intracoastal. Flynn himself cruised these very waters on various voyages through South Florida. One of his favorite places to hide from Lili & JW was in an oceanfront front home,two miles ahead (south) of this location, across from the Cloisters of Boca Raton.

After Party Ghost List

20 Nov

Mulholland House

Ghost List for the After Party: A to Z

Hedy, Bev and Niv’ all are said to have said that Errol’s powerful spirit remained here after his death, or at least occasionally returned. The Hamblems and Nelsons believed so, too – along with other presences at Errol’s favorite old haunt, Mulholland Farm. Paranormal activities have abounded on the Zaca, too, it’s been said.

So, whether you believe in ghosts, or not, let’s explore the legends. Don’t be afraid of no ghosts.…. That’s the spirit.

If they exist at all, were they somehow connected to Errol, or perhaps to James Lankershim, the land’s former owner, or someone else entirely???

What are your thoughts?
