Can't be THAT bad... I've been in most of the "ARMPIT" places of the world & Florida back in the early 70's came across as pretty damned nice. What was it that frizzy haired guy said? "everything is relative" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

I have vacationed up and down both sides of Florida, even lived in Clearwater for a while. I would suggest checking out Anna Maria Island or Longboat Key. The beaches are clean, not packed with people, and the water is nice. I like the beaches there better than Sanibel Island, because the broken shells on Sanibel aren't fun to walk on. Siest Key would also be up there in my top choices. Of course, if you can make a run over to South Beach, there are usually some nice rides, and lots of interesting night life.

It's like a destiny I can't escape.

You are going to love Destin!

I used to play in a club down there once a year, or so.

I also noticed Paul never took the bait on my first post in this thread.

M,
I got it, but I agree with you.

Did you play at Cash's on the island?

Hey Redshift,
I agree the Destin area is great. I am on my way to Blue Mountain Beach (15 miles East of Destin) this Friday for the Holiday's at my Condo. Blue Mountain is the highest elevation on the Gulf Rim (66 ft. above sea level) & beaches are beautiful. Some one said it's sometimes called the "Red Neck Riveria". All the rich folks from down South go there in the summer to excape the heat. December & January are the coolest months so it's a little chilly at this time. I will be checking out the area for 914's when down there.

I tried to remember the name of the club... hmm.. can't remember Paul.

If we were all kids, I'd say let's head out to the East, and start trolling around Stuart_Ft. Pierce.. those girls were almost as wild as the ones in Arkansas, and just slightly wilder than girls from Memphis, and Memphis women are nuts.

Nothing personal. I just don't fit in to that "something for everyone" - and I'm a little ticked about my personal situation, of being forced to go there.

California certainly isn't perfect - I'll be first to agree that it's f-ed up. But it sure fits "something for everyone" a lot better. Truth be told, there's plenty of other places I would pick Florida over if I had to choose.

The main thing that irritates me about Florida is Orlando - and how everybody and their 6 brothers there seems to want to slip their hand into your pocket if you just happen to be there to visit Walt's place. Fortunately, I won't be near Orlando this time. (though I might just make the drive to spend a night or two at Malibu Grand Prix).

I guess the same could be said about California - only everyone and their 6 brothers want to slip their hand into your pocket if you happen to try to own property.
