but like Louie said, Florida living is a personal preference I think. You either love it or you hate it. And for me I love this down here.

Yeah I did it for almost 5 years. I loved the people (best friends of my life)... but the weather, I always hated.

Were you that young guy pumping gas at the gas station in Southern Georgia saying how you're leaving to get out of Florida after 5 years there as I was telling you I'm on my way down?

HA! I don't remember that but... maybe?

Exactly! Give me palm trees and turquoise water any day over a freaking rain coat!

It's the same for me though, people always ask me why I want to move back to Austin, this is why:

I don't care if it's 115 degrees, there's water to cool off in!!

I had no idea Austin had a beach? Isn't that like in the center of Texas? When I think of Texas, I think of Dallas. The soap opera. Cows and brown parched pastures.

I always heard palm trees met a cruel fate in Texas? Unless you lived more coastal there.

Louie and doesn't Texas have alligators? same as Florida? See I'd be scared to swim let alone even go near any kind of freshwater. That's like rule #1 when you come down here.

That's Lake Travis... I took one of my North Carolina friends there last year and he refuses to believe it was a lake and not an ocean

. It's crystal clear and aquamarine colored, just gorgeous. And there's a species of palm trees that's actually native to Austin, it's name escapes me at the moment. People are alway so surprised at how Austin looks... it's more similar to Southern California or the Mediterranean in it's appearance and climate than it is to Texas
