I'm Surprised no one has reviewed this place yet. Over the years I've come here a lot to study or…read moredo work when I'm in town. It's preferable to a crowded coffee shop except there is no coffee here :( but there is a Starbucks with a drive thru nearby. It's a nice little hybrid of a community lib downstairs and a college student space upstairs. Very nice chill study space with comfy chairs with plugs and a reference lib on duty upstairs. I really like the giant hanging baby exploring the abc's and what not as you walk up the atrium stairs.

Moi read somewhere on Yelp that they have a handy little section where you can leave a book & borrow a book, which is great for travelers like moi. And Presto! Yes they certainly do! How very convenient. We have a similar box at Ever'mans in Pensacola I use often. Fabulous Library. Excellent Hours. Will Return & Often. Highest Recommendations.

Love this library! Full of great ideas for the community. Friendly workers. Very welcoming place…read more Beyond books! Great large print section! Has "memory kits" for check out. Sells like new books for $1 (that were donated). Has a puzzle loan section. Also loans out some tech. The nearby businesses send us here to use the restroom so I came to know it "honestly" and make it a regular part of my beach vacations for the great ideas and opportunities.

Somehow, we always seem to end up along this stretch of Gulf Blvd. for the Independence and Labor Day holidays, and now that a buddy of ours has purchased a home 2 blocks from the beach access, it's probably the only beach we will hit up from now on. Always clean, rarely overcrowded and good fishing. Bring a tent, a cooler (minus glass), a cigar and set up shop.

He…read moreled me to believe accepting VSI was not going to impact my receiving any potential benefits. I think he believed it too. I received a letter from the VA saying I was approved the disability but it would be deducted from my VSI payment which no one in 1992 told me was possible. It's been pulling teeth trying to get an email or phone call to clarify the results. Jason had told me my VSI wouldn't affect my claim. Several emails several messages. I'd heard the VA doesn't care. But now I know, it's sad. Who do you tell your advocate couldn't care less?

Definitely a good spot for a wedding venue!

The quality rater for my case called to let me know about my upcoming C&P exams. I know his name if…read moreI am ever asked who it was. I asked him why I had to go to the exams because I was already diagnosed by the VA for these issues. I said, "Okay, please call my lawyer to let her know what was going on". I get a call and an email from my lawyer saying she was dropping my case because this rater said I was being "belligerent". I filed a case to the VA Complaint hotline and who calls me? The rater I had made the complaint about in the first place. He claimed he didn't say it and that lawyers lie, however, how did my lawyer know he and I had gone back and forth about my claim? I wasn't being "belligerent", I just had some questions for him. I sent an email complaint to the White House about him. When he was scheduling my C&P exams, he told me he didn't like the contractor they had scheduled me to see, so I requested another contractor. That didn't work out well for me either because my C&P claim got denied. He then suggested I file a TDIU claim, but forgot to mention I would have to go through more C&P exams for my claim to be accepted. I am currently at 90% service-connected. I am 70% for PTSD, 30% for kidney stones, 10% for diabetes, and 10% for GERD. I have had 4 shoulder operations, 1 on my right and 3 on my left and cannot lift over 20 pounds anymore without my bones flaking off and cutting into my tendons and having more surgeries to take out the bone spurs. I've had 1 hernia operation and currently have 2 hiatal hernias in me now. I've had 2 wrist operations, scoliosis in my neck, bone spurs in my feet, osteoarthritis, high-blood pressure with hypertension, asthma, bulging disks in my back, I also suffer from depression and anxiety. I served in the Marine Corps, Army, and National Guard for 10 years as a military policeman and I'm a OEF disabled veteran. I served until I couldn't serve anymore and nobody in this office cares. I wished they could see how a single parent like me tries to support their child being limited on the jobs I can do. I've lived off of $150.00 a month from food stamps. If I am not a 100% service-connected veteran, I don't know who is? I have a Bachelors Degree that I can't no longer use because of my health issues. I didn't graduate college to draw disability. Shame on you guys for what you are doing to veterans! Karma will find you one day. The government wonders why recruitment in the military is down, well, look and see what you are doing to the veterans of this country. I wouldn't tell any young person to serve after what I have been through with the VA.

They have tons of shady parking right near the front entrance. I usually shop & toss stuff in my YETI cooler while fannying about, so shady parking is a big plus for moi. The store is quite small but the inventory is plentiful, service is excellent & I have never had to wait in line to check out. Bathrooms are always clean. Will Return :)

Your welcome :) And if you already got a ticket, you don't have to go to City Hall to pay it, you can pay your parking tickets online. You can also pay your pinellas county utilities & taxes online! Yay! :)) Sir Hubbers & I just bought real estate here, our 3rd Home/winter residence. When we got our utilities all set up they made a clerical mistake somehow, wrote down the wrong email address then, cut the power off! They quickly fixed the issue, came to our home & turned the power back on. The garbage service is a serious mess. A complete nightmare. It's been months since the Hurricane & garbage is still everywhere. So much rubbish, the entire contents of peoples homes still on the streets. The damage was catastrophic. The city just can not handle the waste disposal. Have to build on stilts now. The new ordnance's for re-building in the flood zones are all listed online.

Online veterinary technology student. Not impressed! Minus star would be a great option! Avoid this…read moreschool if you have other options. Limited if any support from veterinary technology department. Limited local options for outsourcing internships to more diverse areas of veterinary medicine. It's like the so-so mediocre GP vet clinic that a surrounding community tends to avoid due to a bad reputation. And deserving of it! I am a student who had attended another out of state institution for a RVT program. Pierce College was awesome! Pierce had a great RVT community, great faculty that sincerely cared about student success, it was a feeder school to UC Davis, it had great resources for students, internships, Animal Science electives (extended), hands on labs at their multi million dollar brand new state of the art facility's, 300 acre farm with barn for horses, cattle, goats and sheep great herd health and environmental enrichment projects for students. Small animal surgery suite and state of the art scientific learning labs. This is NOT what you get at SPC. It's very generic, and prides itself on catering to small animals| shelter animals ONLY and they do not seem to give a F&$!? About what you as a student care about learning. No room for that. **Future veterinary students seek to diversify your Animal Science portfolio elsewhere***

I feel a little awkward~I'm not 23 anymore. Hell, I'm not 43 anymore! But I know my journey through these classrooms will no doubt enrich my life and point me toward a new horizon. I'm excited about my journey. Hospitality seems to be the direction I will travel. I love, love, love people and helping them have fun and this course will allow me to work in major hotels and, hopefully, cruise business. How fun will it be to travel and relocate and make money all at once???!!! I'm not getting any younger and it makes no sense NOT see as much of this awsome world as possible. I'm excited and a little scared! But I know they've got my back and I'll have so much to look forward to after this gig is over. I'll keep you posted!!!
