Aug. 12 - Moved to our new home in Canada. I am so excited. It's so beautiful here. The mountains are so majestic. Can hardly wait to see them with snow covering them.
Oct. 14 - Canada--it is the most beautiful place on earth. The leaves have turned all colors and shades of red and orange. Went for a ride through the beautiful countryside and saw some deer. They are so graceful. Certainly they are the most wonderful animals on earth. This must be paradise. I love it here!
Nov. 11 - Remembrance Day. Deer season starts soon. I can't imagine anyone wanting to kill such a gorgeous creature. Hope it snows soon. I love it here!
Dec. 2 - It snowed last night. Woke up to find everything blanketed with white. It looks like a postcard. We went outside and cleaned the snow off the steps and shoveled the driveway. We had a snowball fight (I won). When the snow plough came by we had to shovel the driveway again. What a beautiful place. I love Canada!
Dec. 12 - More snow last night. The snow plough did his trick again to the driveway. I love it here.
Dec. 19 - More snow last night. Couldn't get out of the driveway to get to work. It's beautiful here but I'm exhausted from shoveling. Fucking snow plough.
Dec. 22 - More of that white shit fell last night. I've got blisters on my hands and a sore back from shoveling. I think the snow plough hides around the corner until I'm done shoveling the driveway. Asshole.
Dec. 25 - Merry Fucking Christmas! More frigging snow. If I ever get my hands on the sonovabitch who drives the snow plough, I swear I'll kill the bastard. Don't know why they don't use more salt on the roads to melt the fucking ice.
Dec. 27 - More white shit last night. Been inside for three days now except for shoveling out the driveway after that snow plough goes through every time. Can't go anywhere, the car's stuck in a mountain of white shit and it's so frigging cold. The weatherman says to expect another 10 inches of the shit again tonight. Do you know how many shovels full of snow 10 inches is?
Dec. 28 - That fucking weatherman was wrong. We got 34 inches of the shit this time. At this rate it won't melt before summer. The snow plough got stuck up in the road and that bastard came to my door and asked to borrow my shovel. After I told him that I had already broken six shovels shoveling out all the shit he had pushed into my driveway, I damn near broke my last one over his fucking head.
Jan. 4 - Finally got out of the house today. Went to the store to get food and on my way back a damned deer ran in front of the car. Did about $3,000 damage to the car. Those fucking beasts should be killed. The bastards are everywhere. Wish the hunters had exterminated them all last November.
May 3 - Took the car to the garage in town. Would you believe the thing is rusted out from all that fucking salt they put all over the roads.
May 10 - Moved to Florida. I can't imagine why anyone in their right mind would ever want to live in such a God forsaken place as Canada!

I want to see the Florida followup.
May 10th- Moved to Florida
May 12th- This place is great. I'm out in my shorts and it's 90 degrees. Warm, I love it.
May 15th- Mowed the yard again to day. Man, I'm really sweating, wonder what the humidity is?
June 1- Damn, mowed the yard for the fifth time. Had to drink a gallon of gatoraid.
June 15- 100 degrees at 100 percent humidity. Watched Manuel mow the yard from the front room. Massive 100,000 btu AC keeps the house at a cozy 72 degrees F. Only 300 bux a month for the power.
July 1- I'm still alive. Survived a 5 hour electrical storm last night. I thought at any minute the aliens would descend from the clouds to pick us up. The dog is still under the bed. Wife called a few minutes ago and told me she'd gotten back to Canada ok. It's just as well, I was gonna tell her about the 8 foot long snake skin I found in the laundry room. I really was.
heheheheheheheheheheh |

You forgot about the f*cking flying cockroaches they so quaintly call "Palmetto Bugs" and the spiders as big as dinner plates!

And the "swamp angels" (mosquitoes,) and snakes, gators, brush fires, all that sort of stuff. I tried Michigan for a few months once, but it would stay totally clouded over for ever in winter, how depressing.
I'll take the sunny swamp with all it's critters and storms over the snow country any time. I call the white stuff "Florida Native Repellent." : )
The local saying is that fools and yankees are the only ones who try to predict the weather here.

Funny thing is that once you get acclimatized, you do find all kinds of different and very interesting things to do during the winter.
On a different note, we northerners often wonder why it is that Bubba, who lives in a house on wheels, that is located in a quaint valley called "Tornado Alley" hasn't yet figured out that he really could save himself a lot of grief iffen he simply moved somewhere else.
Am I missing something here?

Cus it's Bubba's home and he ain't movin! He's gotta keep his job at the gas station!
Whats more amusing to me than trailer parks in tornado alley is trailer parks in small towns in nevada. MIIILLLESSS of barren, empty, lifeless, valley desert around and what do you see but a matchbox sized trailer park with a 4 foot chain link fence around it, the trailers all packed in like a tetris game. WHY?!
To balance it out and state I don't hate trailer parks, my friend lives in one that is walking distance from the beach in Orange County, CA. One of the few ways to live near the beach over there and not be rich! |

| I live in Western North Carolina. We have here what we call half-backs. Northerners, tired of the winters move to Florida, only to get tired of the summers. So, they move halfway back up and land in NC. :) |

That's too funny! I'm seriously considering moving that way in another year. I was looking at listings in Georgia though.
