I love Florida. I really wish I lived there. Maybe some day, but I don't like the idea of hurricanes destroying my house or the state starting to go underwater.

It's not that bad lol
 
Yeah I know lol. I am just a giant overthinker.
You aren't the only one Walker my wife said all the same things!
We've thought about moving there, no snow and closer to Luis ;) and we're both tired of the cold but have to visit first.
 
Yes indeed and it was you who got me thinking about this.
I remember your conversation with Parker about it.
Thanks again Tim!
