Walter Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 Beautiful night. Grilling some chicken, having a couple of drinks to celebrate the first race week of the season. The best time to be in central Florida!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a number of horse stable just up the road from us. We live on the north side of Disney property - but no tourists come through. I used to work on I-Drive for years when I was in Hospitality Management. I prefer Universal to Disney also. Turning Stone was built after I left, but it is literally a couple of miles from the high school I attended up there. My mother's boyfriend works there. I became a Cowboys fan because my grandfather was one (he was a lot like Tom Landry) and my sister liked the Steelers - so I had to be the opposite of that... My father was a Bills fan and the Giants/Jets were never even a consideration as they both sucked and really weren't represented well in Central NY. Anyway... It wasn't that bad this morning! Beautiful afternoon today...mid 70's Sorry I just read this Walter. Did your father live to see SB XXV? Wide right? Great guy in my book was your father! My wife’s parents almost bought in Winter Haven. What I love is no matter where you are in Florida it’s only 2 hours to the ocean or gulf. Some game yesterday.

Freaking Shanaham Yeah he saw them all - passed in 2008. Raised me on OJ, Joe Ferguson, Joe Cribbs, etc. My grandparents retired near Winter Haven back in the 70’s, which eventually brought us down here. Love the beach! Gulf side more than the Atlantic, generally speaking. Shanahan can’t call plays with two hands around his throat, apparently.... Beautiful here - windows open, listening to the crickets.

I go there often. My late grandmother had a place in Fort Myers I used to go to. I have cousins in Sunrise/Hollywood. I actually prefer the East coast. But the one place I have not been to and want to is Sarasota. I have been by it but never stopped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stryder1978 Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 After 36 hours of off/on snow, it is now-5 degrees this morning. And another 2-5 inches is forecast for Friday, followed by another storm next Sunday/Monday and then Wed/Thurs. This February sucks ass so far!

Those few weeks of fires and smoke were horrendous. We're forecast for a week of rain and I'm loving it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stryder1978 Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 After a (thankfully) dry January, we are back to our horrible cloudy days clear nights, temps in the 30's and snow every other day pattern. Had 6 inches on Friday, another inch on Saturday and a trace yesterday. More snow for tonight and Wednesday. COME ON GLOBAL WARMING! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stryder1978 Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 ....snowed last night (2 inches), snowed all day today. It was supposed to get to 36 and sunny, but instead we got clouds and snow and a temp of 28 for a high. Next batch of snow is set for Monday. This winter SUCKS! We've only had 3 days above our normal Feb average temp and snow every 3-4 days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chillumpuffer Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Drying out after Storm Dennis ripped into us this weekend. Some communities are completely submerged and cut off. This comes after last weekends Storm Ceira dumped huge amounts of rainfall. Another one due Thursday and next weekend. Fuck me it's a mess.

chillumpuffer Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Fucking wet. From the Midlands upwards the Country is almost underwater. We have had rain of Biblical proportions for days on end. Communities flooded everywhere up North and in Wales. Disaster and more rain to come which is seriously bad news for the already weary people. But of course help is at hand. This worthless Prime Minster and the racist mongrels who make up this Government have allocated 5bn notes to help with the flooding. Unsurprisingly the majority of the cash will go to London and The South East where it hardly rains at all. Well done Boris fuck us all off whilst you spend the money on yourselves.

Stryder1978 Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Day 2 of three where the daily high temperature is not above freezing, and it's been snowing since 1000 hours. We are 11 inches above our average snowfall amount for the year...and our "snowiest" month (March) is yet to come! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
