old Town is alright I guess but it's getting kinda old...lol

We have our own palm trees. 4 to be exact.

I love winters up north though. Yes, the snow sucks to drive in, especially when it's inches deep and you cannot see the road, just tracks of the vehicles in front of you because the salt trucks or snow plows haven't come through yet. But, the Florida heat is a killer. Today it got up to 88*. Seriously, it's damn near December.

I've lived in several different places, and its easy to say that if you are somewhere long enough you start to not like it or its surroundings. I'm not too fond of Orlando either but you can't beat the weather right now

Yea, definitely. I've been up to Pennsylvania in the dead of winter several times. Up in the Pocono Mountains and the coldest I was in was -12* with a wind chill colder than that. On the news they were telling people not to go outside because their face would literally freeze. They also threw a cup of hot water into the air and the droplets froze before they even hit the ground...Now that is cold and wasn't too much fun....

benefit for me by living here is I love to go on Cruises(talking about ships here) and we have 4 ports with at least 4 or 5 different ships so cruises are easy to come by. And to me nothing beats just going on a ship and being 50 60 or even 70 miles out in the ocean away from civilization. Nothing beats that.

I could deal with the heat. Unless you work outside..... Everything else is air conditioned.

No, I worked in construction for a year and said ef this...that was brutal in the summer time.

I work inside but what sucks is it gets to the point down here where you walk outside and cannot breathe because of the combination of 100*+ with 90 percent humidity. So I am inside most of the summer time.

No sir....lol...I'm worked in construction before there. I'll never go back to construction.

I kinda feel bad for you in the summer time. Cars running all around you in a huge metal box. I bet it gets hot as hell at the dealership. Does it not?

Well this is all sounding promising.....

Well, if everybody that says they're going to show up does, we're gonna have to get out there fairly early to be able to park in one section. I would say to start showing up around 6:30 to 7:00. 7:00 probably being the latest. The past couple times I have been out there there has been well over 100 cars out there.
