    Yeah, Ocala is a cool area. A lot of big ranches and horse racing there.

    At the same time though, Florida really doesn't offer much other than the beach. Part of the reason I left for CO lol

    I actually officially start next Monday. Ford tech at Auto Nation in Saint Petersburg Florida. Can’t say I’m excited to get back to real life but I could use some money for truck parts :cool:

    so i left my last job in NY July 15th of this year so that would be 168 days of amazing freedom. My girl left her law firm around the same time but she took a leave of absence and luckily her firm has an office in tampa so she will be starting there in a few weeks. all in all, totally worth the experience and odds are i will do another cross country adventure in the next few years. Idk how long we will want to live in florida but so far its a pretty good gig. lots of things to, seafood everywhere, already sent in my concealed carry application and bought a new pistol lol so we are making the most of it. We have been talking about living here for a couple years and then spending a year in alaska.... just cant hold still lol

    we are kinda still planning on buying a house up there. For the most part we think thats where we want to settle down but we have a really good opportunity here to save a lot of money really fast. the plan is kindof save up enough to buy our dream house in cash.
