    Dreaming of fall.......

    Welp, we`ve had a mild weekend with morning temps in the mid 70`s, which is such a tease, because once May starts, we`re locked into 6 months of hot. Come mid June through October, the humidity monster will make it intolerable in the garage. Yep, in the same vane of the Dreaming of spring..... thread, this old fart Floridian is dreaming of Fall. Late Fall.

    Winter in (this part of) Florida is blissful. Polishing paint with a sweater on. No THAT seems very far away.

    I sure do, it has already hit 101 and going up. I was in the garage adding another coat of Collinite with sweat dripping everywhere. Of course as the saying goes "It`s a dry heat".

    JUST STOP!!!!!!! We are finally getting some sun and warmth here. Actually washed my cars in shorts and t-shirt this morning. I don`t even want to THINK of fall...`cause that means we will be freezing our butts off again. Besides, us northerners need our turn to brag about nice weather and listen to you guys complain!

    Funny thread

    This week has been great here

    Last week was a prelude to summer 90+/humid uhhhhh

    Now it`s headed for hot and humid again, but that`s what they invented ac for.

    Things all Floridians know:
    1. Publix
    2. Category 1 or 2, head for the tiki bar
    3. Stone crabs
    4. Love Bugs
    5. Bug Squash
    6. How to find a shady parking spot
    7. Publix Subs
    8. The phone number for the AC repair
    9. In summer if you want to do something outside, it gets done before 9am, or after 9pm
    10. The guy next to you in the car didn`t fart, it`s a Florida well burping.
    11. What a snowbird is
    12. When snowbird season is
    13. The most dangerous places in FL are the right lane next to a Walmart, and the right lane of any restaurant during "early bird special time"
    14. The speed limits are optional
    15. That you don`t need an umbrella, the rain will stop in 10 minutes.
    16. That black thing on the side of the highway is not necessarily a blown tire
    Formerly the "Best Detailer", now just Super Wax Waster Man. Not necessarily tactful, but normally right. It`s good to be da King !!!

    Easy for you to say. In the winter you aren`t ONR washing vehicles in a cramped garage with a salamander heater on while it`s 18 degrees outside.
