Arrived Wensday at around 3pm after 1900 miles (slight detore to S.C.) to drop some stuff off at my parents place), We drove through snow for almost 1600 miles. And Temps didn't get to 40 degrees till we pulled into my parents place.
Friday I then left and went to Texas with Mike and his family for Xmas another 19hr drive. Stayed there for 10 Days then drove back. I tell you I think the cold weather fallowed my from MN even in Texas Temps for the most part were in the 40-50 We even got Snow 1 night.
But now that we're back in Florida it's been 70-80 degrees almost every day since. Bright Sun shine with a slight breeze....
Man I wish my car was running since I've been here I've run into all kind of Exotics.
Even lined up next to a Ferrari Testarosa in Full Road Race Set up (Cage, 1 seat, Sponsor Decals, etc, etc) about 4 Lambo's, Can't even count the Porsche (sp) GT's in this area) all along Okachobee (the main road here) There's primarly only high end Car Dealerships.
I have 2 DSM owners in my Town House complex (1x91 AWD, and a 99 GS-T) nothing to special but good to have fellow DSMr's around.
I'm still in Training but Have been asked by my apartment complex manager to come take a look at the buildings here, and if I can sign them up that'll make my year. I would be about $200,000 in Commission. Just of this one job. I've ask my friend Mike to help with it since he's been doing this for 7 years. And Hell even if the commision is split that's still one hell of a pay check for only 1 job. So far I've been on 5 outings to peoples house's and so far we've signed up 4 out of the 5, if they were my jobs my total commission checks would be about $5,200. And the best part is It only takes about 15 minutes to measure a roof, and do the paper work.
Anyways Hope some of you decide to come down in March or when ever but expect the temps to be in the upper 80-90's by that time.
I'm 6.2 miles from the Ocean.
I'm 60 miles from Miami
I saw a sign for Morosso Motorsport Raceway about 30 miles from here.
Datona is about 3.5hrs from here.
Orlando is about the same.
And if you fly in the Airport is only 3 streets down. And I know they fly to MN cause my father Flew home from there.
Hope all is well back in MN!
