Default Not too much dressing up going on.

Generally only the newbies dress up. Most of us will shower, change into a clean pair of shorts and head on out. And that is true of nearly everything here. There was a black tie affair for the hospital last week.

But even in church, Florida casual is the accepted norm.

You may think the people are more dressed up just because more men have been wearing long pants due to the chilly (55 degrees at night) temperatures!

Not me, Ron. I am not retired yet. I "dress down" when going to the squares.

I thought it was clothes optional.

Seriously, it seems like shorts and t-shirt would be acceptable unless it is cold.
