I miss the warm waters of fl.

Today, as I was grilling some blackened Mahi Mahi in the middle of a snow squall and sipping on a Margarita I remembered the wonderful times I have had diving in the Keys or just watching the sun set over the gulf.
I hope that all you Conch Divers really appreciate what you have there.

I will be back,

I feel your pain.

We do. Come back & visit soon!!

Me too. And the sun.

I feel your pain too. We were there two weeks ago and its done nothing but rain at home since we got back.

I grew up in Florida and California but then lived in the Midwest and on the east coast for 20 years (Philadelphia, Chicago, Detroit, Columbus OH, etc). Moved to Florida 4 years ago and I have appreciated everything about it and wake up feeling blessed every morning. I travel for work occasionally (just got back from Baltimore and Philadelphia) and if I my soul is running low on its appreciation for the sun, the warm weather and the beautiful water, those trips renew my appreciation for this place. Some of those cities are great in their own sense and I understand why residents enjoy living there but they are not for me. Florida definately has its own set of issues, like everywhere, but I love it here and appreciate what I have.

I was talking to a friend in Western MI today who asked what I am doing tomorrow: when I ran through the options: dive in Key Largo, dive in Jupiter, dive at Blue Heron Bridge, walk my dog on the beach, ride my motorcycle around the lake. blah, blah blah: that Michigan friend was filled with envy

If I drink enough margaritas I can almost feel the warmth of that Florida sun.
