I'll be towing south tomorrow . . . Unfortunately, it will only be 5 miles from the dealer to the storage lot. I'm gonna drive real slow and imagine it's 2018

We choose to stay where there are 4 seasons. Employment? Family? Habit?


Find a new job where it is warm all year, pull up your roots and relocate. Easy!


(You won't find me doing that anytime soon.)

My plan is in 3 years to move from Long Island to Georgia where all of my family has relocated. In the summer months we will head north back to New York and stay in the Hudson Valley, Catskills and Adirondacks areas. Kinds like reverse Snowbirds.

Someday I hope to join you all in a warmer climate . At least for the winter and then back home for the summer as I don`t think I could take summer heat of the southern states .

We love our four seasons. Winter/Snow, Break up, construction, and freeze up.

I can't believe it. Y'all are leaving the cold and the snow. I have to live in Florida sunshine all year long. I have to camp and go fishing everyday. What kinda life is that. Be safe on the trip down and help me enjoy this rough life. Happy Thanksgiving.

Well just another day...79 and sunny. Just waiting for DW to finish and off to go fishing and will have to cut that short so we can go stuff ourselves. Please be safe and thank someone in our military for the freedom that they preserve for us. I'm glad I live somewhere in this great USA.

That is the reason Jackie Gleason moved his TV show from New York to Miami many years ago. He discovered he could play golf every day in Florida.
