Is Virginia the standard for the world???......What would they say in Virginia to men wearing shorts in restaurants? Rules and customs change thru the years and we need to accept the new. I've been in Fla. for over 60 years and it has always been a casual atmosphere. I remember my uncle visiting in the early 50's from Pittsburgh and always wearing a suit everywhere he went and getting stares. Wearing baseball style caps indoors is now ok as far as I can see except in high class restaurants. Going to Cody's for a beer and wings.......no problem.
