Well, that's all for now. I look forward to getting to know you and becoming one of your favorite storytellers. Thank You, Backwoods

Welcome to BookTalk.org, Backwoods.
I'm a bit of a camping lover too. In FL you can only camp during the cooler months so I don't get to do it enough.

Oh, I bet. I did some work down there when yins had the swarm of hurricanes (the years before Katrina, with Charlie, Frances, Ivan, and Jeanne). If it doesn't bite or sting, it's either poisonous or trying to eat ya. That heat is something else too. It was mid September and 95 degrees with 95% humidity down there. I'm getting sticky just thinking about it. That would take the fun right out of camping. I could go for a winter without snow though. Good luck, I hope you can get an outing in soon.

A group of us camp every February at a place called Ginnie Springs. It is COLD and we're the only people crazy enough to be there most years. But there are no mosquitoes and no sweating.
Yeah, I miss the snow too. I'm from Ohio.

I am an Ohio Boy myself. No bees or poison Ivy when its cold either. I used to love working in the wintertime. I have had some shoulder troubles and the cold weather seems a bit more brutal each year, but I will still take it over that muggy heat any day. You can warm up a lot easier than you can cool down.
