Default Just Moved to FL!
Hey everyone,

I just made the move from Los Angeles to Bradenton this week. My TA is being shipped over and should arrive this week. The highways here are so much smoother than LA and I can't wait to drive it down here, except for all the rain! Much different than drought ridden CA. It's going to be tough keeping it clean. Anyways, hope to see some of you around!
