Default You know you're in Florida in July when......

.....the birds have to use potholders to pull worms out of the ground.

.....the trees are whistling for the dogs.

.....the best parking place is determined by shade instead of distance.

.....hot water now comes out of both taps.

.....you can make sun tea instantly.

.....you learn that a seat belt buckle makes a pretty good branding iron.

.....the temperature drops below 95 and you feel a little chilly.

.....you discover that it only takes 2 fingers to steer your car.

.....you discover that you can get sunburned through your car window.

.....you actually burn your hand opening the car door.

.....you break into a sweat the instant you step outside at 7:30 a.m.

.....your biggest bicycle wreck fear is, 'What if I get knocked out and end up lying on the pavement and cook to death?'

.....you realize that asphalt has a liquid state.

.....the potatoes cook underground, so all you have to do is pull one out and add butter, salt and pepper.

.....farmers are feeding their chickens crushed ice to keep them from laying boiled eggs.

.....the cows are giving evaporated milk.

Ah, what a place to call home!

Default Lemonmade

When you've got a lemon, might as well make lemonade with it.

Make some lemon flavored kool-aid and everything will change - make you feel like you are still up north
Warm and sunny all day temp in the mid 80s
night time temp in the 60s
golf courses are lush and green
beautiful green trees sway in the summer breeze
you can put your tee in the ground without a hammer
the smell of fresh cut grass
30 percent humidify
a rainy day every now and then
etc etc you know the drill
enjoy and keep the kool-aid handy when you feel a relapse coming on, take when needed
