Exciting was not the exact word that came to mind at the time, but it's accurate!<br /><br />Glen, trust me. In a town full of retirees, you would not have wanted one.

I lived in Florida for 3 years, but in the north-of-armpit town, Gainesville which is full of students, not old people, since the university is its only feature :)<br /><br />I enjoyed the tubing down the springs, the portion sizes and the exciting feeling that you might be eaten by an alligator at any moment but was less keen on the desire to change my entire outfit after I walked into work.Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03204560837191984544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1095595470875267473.post-91149406295963030362011-11-24T10:33:54.630-07:002011-11-24T10:33:54.630-07:00Laura, we did!

You're in a kind of secret Florida, that area doesn't get all the hype but has a lot to offer, and with less crowds!!<br /><br />Ladybug, Happy T-Day too! Those sand sculptors are artists for sure, such detail. Sure beats the pants off the big round mounds that I'm capable of!Staceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15477759880480781308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1095595470875267473.post-84823249082304869182011-11-24T10:22:15.559-07:002011-11-24T10:22:15.559-07:00Man, that sand is white enough to blind you - espe...Man, that sand is white enough to blind you - especially with all the SUN they have down there. We were fortunate enough to see a sculpting contest in Ocean Shores, WA, so know that those who take part are SERIOUS about their work. I'd say the ones we saw were every bit as good as the ones shown on the link you provided. Don't think I could stand the heat & humidity down there - but SUN would be grand.

People have tried to tell me this is inaccurate but I liked Miami Vice so I'm going to stick with it.<br /><br />P.S. Here in the NW it has been cold and monsoon type rainy for the past few days. Those pictures of sun and sand are making me want to check on flights to Florida. That and the hopes of someday finally getting to meet Crockett and Tubbs.Christian at Point Counter-Point Point Pointhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11447821094473597560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1095595470875267473.post-16604579324415347332011-11-23T10:20:31.477-07:002011-11-23T10:20:31.477-07:00you reminded me...why the hell am i in florida!?? ...you reminded me...why the hell am i in florida!?? how did i get here?<br /><br />(seen those RV's stuck in the ground...unless they're in more than one place...i used to live by the exit that had that...I75/mcintosh rd)laurak/ForestWalkArt :)https://www.blogger.com/profile/00285156023840252154noreply@blogger.com
