    yea I have seen some of the pictures you posted from your backyard.
    looks like a pretty quiet relaxing place to live.

    maybe Orlando some day. but who knows.

    Congratulations!

    When Dan said he wanted a locker, I didn't know he meant "LOCK DOWN".

    Don't get too excited...Toyota would make it so you could only engage while at church on Sunday morning, and if you tried to engage it on a Friday or Saturday night, it would beep and flash red warning lights on your wife's phone.

    Doubt a yellow wire mod would work on your wife either...

    ^^^^^^Bottle of expensive wine or a bucket of Magarita's ^^^^^^

    Or a "Full day at the salon with a Hot Rock massage" for those EXPENSIVE items you might need!! ;)

    You "kids" need to ask the "seniors" for advice/ "get out of jail tips"..


    30 plus years of marriage has taught us a thing or two...:cool:



    Said advice will be DENIED if said Spouse reads..:)

    BEAUTIFUL!

    How are the beaches out there? I live in Miami but my family & I rent at B Ocean in Fort Lauderdale a couple of times per summer. Miami Beach is 11 miles from my house yet I drive 3 times as far for a MUCH better beach. Little if no rocks under water & the crowd is, for the most part, way more family friendly than the South beach one.

    I went to Marco Island & I was not impressed at all. Nice crowd but the smell of rotting mangroves nearby since it borders Florida Bay, the incredicle amount of shells, & the murky water aren't what we look for. If you are into shell collecting then that's the place to be.

    I went to Fort Myers & Sanubel Island many years ago but don't remember how the beaches were. Clearwater Beach & Howard Park (in Tarpon Springs) are nice beaches also.
