[Walrus]

Fellow commanders and opponents all.

I am away from my computer for 10 days.
Sorry for any delay.

Cheers all.

Yeah yeah yeah....you still suck for going there! The guy lives in Australia but finds the white beaches and clear water not attractive enough so he has to rub our snow bound faces in it and go to Fiji. What a guy

Hello Weasel,

we have white beaches out here in Florida too.. and we don't even need to cross an Ocean to get there.. take a break and come for a visit..

But you do have hurricanes up the wazoo! You know, I have never wanted to go to FL, I would go to Alabama, but FL has never tweaked my interest.

Your home insurance must be nuts down there eh? My wife and I always talk about that when we see that yet another storm has clobbered FL.

Looks good to me. Oh for a vacation, any vacation, anywhere, Roll on June and july when I get 2 months off work (Im a teacher)

Aww - those little wind storms aren't so bad when the State is prepared and the leadership doesn't jump on the first flight out..

florida is nice, lots of mosquitoes to join you for a picnic, alligators that share the freshwater canals, turtles that walk the roads and when you bash them with a car you get fined,

Nicer stuff abounds though.. no snow.. blue gulf waters.. always warm temperatures.. St Augustine... Dry Tortuga's... awsome variety of eating places and watering holes.. snowbirds to gawk at (and wonder how they managed to survive so long) ... quiet nights... clear skies... BBQ anytime you want... cool place names, like Cape Coral... no state income tax.. bald eagles.. burrowing owls.. florida panthers (with panther crossing signs!! ) ...

I've been around the block a few times in the USA.. and I really like Florida alot..

Insurance isn't so bad.. it's the flood insurance that gets you if you live in a flood zone (which I don't)..

Come for a visit.. I'll break out my Gewehr '98 and we can punch a few holes in a few things (inanimate objects of course)
