I essentially chose this area because my parents (who aren't getting any younger) live here. I was staying with them when I first moved down here during my house hunt. Within an hour of their place is where I told myself I would try to keep my search when in fact, I ended up finding my place about 1.7 miles from their house LOL. Just fell in love with the house, yard and neighborhood. In hindsight, I think I would have probably preferred being a bit further south as to be closer to the actual beach. I'm about 25 minutes from the Gulf here, but there are no real "beaches". It's about 1:45 hrs to get to Sarasota where I really love the beaches. Luckily, working for Discover, I've been able to work remotely even before COVID hit, so the local job market didn't really play a part in me deciding to choose this area.

Most steel garages down here are like that as well. Looks like good progress. Congrats!

100% Living down here has drastically affected any sinus issues that I had while living in Ohio. I will say the average temp over the next 10 days will be 73*

It ain't bad down here

It's supposed to get down to 28 here tomorrow night. What kinda bullshit is that?!

This sure isn't sketchy or anything. https://www.refinery29.com/en-us/2021/01/10280347/nancy-pelosi-tesla-stock-investment-politicians-ethics

These can be had for these kinda prices now? GLWS

Wow, that looks great. Now I REALLY want one of these!

As my buddy, Gregg pointed out, Browns playing football in mid January is never a bad thing.

"Nearly 74% of Americans are open to getting a COVID-19 Vaccine Passport App to Travel, according to our new survey" I'd like to know where the F they got these numbers.

I came close to making the 4.5 hr drive to Miami, but $1400 is a lot for one ticket.

GO MOTHERFUCKING BUCKS!!!

I'd like to find a clean SS for a daily down here after my lease is up.

Hoblick would probably take it. He burns waste oil in his shop.

I feel for you fellas. Definitely don't miss those cold days/nights in the garage.

I came back home with two Mastador puppies (Scarlet & Gray), so that has been keeping me pretty busy since returning home from Ross's funeral. Sadly, another life change occurred in the last week. My girlfriend ended up moving back to South Carolina to be closer to her 8 year old daughter whom she had been missing so much since moving here. Also, her attorney recommended the move in order to balance out parenting with her POS ex so as to work to gain primary custody. So now, my parents are in Ohio, gf back in SC and other than my neighbors and new dogs, I'll be spending the 2nd Christmas alone. I did get out on the bike for a nice ride yesterday right before sunset, and will likely be taking a few more rides in the coming days. Can this year be over and done with already...please.

Thanks guys. Much appreciated. Headed to Ohio early Thursday morning for the funeral Friday, then back to FL on Saturday. I spent a few nice, sweaty hours yesterday working on Christmas lights outside which was a really good distraction. Pretty strange to be hanging lights in a t shirt and shorts, but it's a lot better than freezing my ass off.

Thanks guys. Good suggestions and I'm sorry about your father. This has been such a rough year. We lost my 99 year old grandfather in March. Really wish I was in Ohio to help with things.

Tuesday night, my 25 year old nephew, Ross, had a seizure and passed away in his sleep in Columbus. His older brother found him in the morning. To say we are all devastated is an understatement. My brother is a total wreck and its so hard to hear him in such pain. My parents are headed back to Ohio within the day, but I'll be leaving once I know the arrangements and speak more with my boss. I was lucky enough that my girlfriend was able to take the day off work yesterday to console me, which if she hadn't, I'm sure the day would have been even more rough than it was. Today, however, I'm here alone...1,000 miles from my friends and family and I can't get out of my head. I'm working today, but very limited. I need to find something to preoccupy my brain. I bought a puzzle last week to do during Christmas when the g/f's daughter is here, but I'm about to open it up. Honestly, maybe, I think I just need to vent. To share what's going on and try to do something other than cry.

Yeah, Mount Gay is really tasty too. My ex's cousin built all the grocery displays for their rum for, NY, PA, Northern Ohio and surrounding areas.

Looked on here for a set of 235/60/14 for the 442. $3/ea less than Tirekingdom, free shipping, and $50 Visa gift card because the Cobra G/T is part of their promo. Hmmm

That way we can't see them lip syncing.

I got some of that Cap'n private stock a few days ago as well. Tasty stuff.
