I don't want to go back to Michigan. I'm down here by myself and I am absoutely enjoying it. I walk out the shop door and blast away at a target that I made. I go to the river and just set for a while. I walk through the woods and just stop and listen. I'm pretty well caught up on everything that I had to get done, and man does that feel good. The shop is getting closer to being all organized. Been looking for am American made parts washer, no luck so far. Got me a mail-box put up. Livin the dream!!!

And its a whole bunch warmer and no snow .

Let's see what you are saying in July when it is 100 degrees and 100% humidity

In July, I'll be swimming in the pond at home in Michigan, saying "I feel sorry for those guys getting killed by the heat and humidity in Florida".

Good Plan, living the dream. I'll be working supporting your lifestyle. Your welcome.

Tony has turned "snowbird" on us.

From what I have learned down here so far, the locals HATE us 'birds. I've been checking into the "permanant resident" thing. Looks like the way to go. Wonder if the hate will still be there then?

Let them hate if they have nothing better to do ,you will be fine .

The reasons for the anti bird sentiment are.
Them people up north dont know how to drive or too old to drive.
They vote for the democrats...and dont like guns.
And saying..that aint the way we do it up north constantly.

I think you should be fine in florida tony.

Man, the old people are downright dangerous! They will drive at 15-20 mph below the speed limit on a two lane road. On a four lane, they get in both lanes and won't get near the speed limit. Traffic behind them is backed up forever. They pull out in front of you all the time, then do the slow driving thing. I surely understand why the locals hate them. Hell, I do too!

Yep, almost everyone that is from here has been brainwashed by their union to vote for the Demos. I don't like people that can't or won't think for themselves.

Guns are a different story for me. I love em!

I have heard that too! I've traveled and worked all over this Country. I'm a firm believer I that old saying "When in Rome, do as Romans do".

I have a 1995, 4x4 Ford Supervan that is jacked up quite a bit, has bigger tires and wheels on it than factory. The locals all love it! Everywhere I go in it, guys ask about it. Maybe the redneck in me will help make some friends down there.
