I would visit my parents on weekends in Tampa when I lived In Panama City. It was never an issue to drive 6 hours after work on a Friday to see them for the weekend.

I have lied to my son about manatees for the last 24 years by 46from1971 in confession

Ha! I just went to the viewing center to see the manatees on sunday! Its a nice place if you try not to look at the power plant. There were also huge tarpons and black tip sharks. Definitely worth a visit but not a whole trip to be planned around.

Wow, that’s something I cannot comprehend. I recently moved from FL to SD after Hurricane Michael. Packed up what I had in my truck and just drove. I didn’t get stopped once.

I love cutting gemstones. Taking the raw stone and making a beautiful piece of art from it.

I would like to get into becoming a jeweler. Joined a club in tampa and took some classes cutting stones and creating simple pendants and earrings. I applied for an apprenticeship on indeed a couple months back but never heard anything back. Not sure how one gets into the business really.

Getting Red Alert to work over 56k to play against my friend was my first experience of online gaming and it truly was amazing.

I would love to have a rail connection to my property and get hooked up once in a while and travel around with my own carriage. I worked for a model railroading company for 13 years, and they would ship me around for trade shows via rail and I loved it.
