Default Greetings from Florida

I left home on Feb 25th and stayed in Atlanta for a few days and arrived in Ft Pierce,FL on Friday. Weather has been nice so far. High 70's to mid 80's every day. I'll be back sometime at the end of March. The weather up there should be getting warm by then.

It sure is nice down here in the winter. Summers ain't bad either. Where I live it rarely gets over 92, which is less than the dog days up north where I came from.

Carl: when you think about it, it rarely gets over 92 around here
And the last 2 winters have been pretty mild

One thing I miss is getting together with you guys. There are a lot of Vettes down here, but everything seems so spread out, there aren't the regular get-togethers like you have up there. It's so bad, I named my boat Sea Six and I have to explain it to people!

As soon as I saw FL in the title I knew it was a "pour salt on the wound" type of post. We'll get back to 'ya in August when the bugs are in full force and the humidity's about 110%!

So Ralph what are you doing in Florida again?
You were just there a few weeks ago.
Did you drive the Vette down this time?

No Jack, I brought the Silverado. I'll rack up the miles on the Vette when I get home. I'll probably be home sometime on the 31st of March.
