Angelo,

You want to be in Florida for the winter. We have lots of racing going on down here from the end of Jan. Through May. You would want to be south of Orlando for the warmest weather. I am working in Miami this winter and have only worn a jacket to work about 4 days this winter. I cant imagine what you all go through each winter up there. Good luck with the upcoming storm and stay safe.

Just to remind my friends on the East Coast of how pleasant the weather is in Arizona........here is a picture of the tomatoes that we picked today and a picture of the grapefruit that are ready to come off the tree.

Stay warm....

Racers wanted an earlier start to the season for tune ups so Pacific Raceways is going to open it's Test n Tune this Sunday if it doesn't rain. No way I'll be ready but I'll go check it out if they get the runs in.

I have relatives in Arizona and I'm retired. Maybe when I get going I can crash with them in the Winter and coin a new term - Snow Burner -

Wishful Whatever...

Arizona is full of "Snow Birds" right now.....it starts right after Thanksgiving and they usually leave by mid March....Snow Birds are never in a hurry....LOL....obviously nothing to do except enjoy the weather....I enjoy talking with them when I go to the store, because I have nothing to do except enjoy the weather......LOL (Just kidding)

Run in in Gary, just rub it in. :-)
I've had enough of this winter in Oklahoma, then I see what the poor people on the East Coast are dealing with. I don't know how they cope with it. They are tougher than myself. Got up to 50 degrees here yesterday. Still have snow on the deck around the pool, the rest is gone. Supposed to be in the 60s for the next 8 to 14 days. Track rental Tuesday for testing. Maybe this crap is over.
