Not sure what I have been taking reminds me when I could smell the air at Red Rocks at the Bette Midler concert and get a buzz. Hard to see her through all the marijuana smoke.

Only 245 feet lower than the highest point in Florida. Britton Hill.

That is the highest NATURAL point. I'd bet that there are one or two of those "landfill" mounds that would give Britton Hill a run for its money.

I was maybe 20 feet elevation in Palm Harbor which is a few miles inland from the Gulf of Mexico near Tarpon Springs.

It was also about 400 feet from Lake Tarpon which is fairly large and connected to Tampa Bay. That Lake Tarpon has about 13,000 alligators in it . A very large storm surge would put some of those gators into various areas of Palm Harbor and other suburbs that surround that lake.

Well, since the highest elevation in the state is 312 ft., I guess that puts you in the foothills. LOL
