I survived Florida!

MallenManson · 06-09-10, 08:21 AM

Left for Florida at 3:30 AM Thursday and got back at 2:20 AM Sunday. Still exhausted!
I know you Southern boys wouldn't think anything of it, but I swear my face started melting off in that heat!

Got to see my daughter graduate high school, and see my little grandbaby for the 1st time.

Graduation went really well, although incredibly long! After it was over, I got the cheerleaders to knock 6 bucks off the last 12 roses they had

Bait Monkey refused to let me pay full price!

Really proud of that girl.

The grandbaby is absolutely adorable! I learned that a great benefit to being a grandfather is, when they get fussy or mess their diaper, you hand em off to someone else

The GB peed all over my ex at McDonalds. That's Grandpa's girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I could hook ya up with my baby's momma, but never, and I repeat, never, try to carry her over the threshold! You ain't a young man anymore lol. Besides, once Lisa found out, your days of satisfying a woman, or at least putting forth a valiant effort, would be over

Thanks for sure John, much appreciated.
I lived in Florida back in the day for a little over 3 years. I was 19 during part of that too! Got kinda acclimated to the weather. Then came home and froze my friggin boys off! Now I'm comfortably Michigan again, and Florida was just too dang hot!!!!!!!!
When you walk into your hotel room for the first time, and the AC is runnin wide open, that's a bad bad omen

screwballl · 06-14-10, 04:08 PM

Nah its not the heat that gets you, its the humidity, took me 3 or 4 years to somewhat get used to it. I went out yesterday for a few hours when it was in the low 90s with humidity around the mid 90s... before getting in the beast I took my shirt off and wrung it out.

It's the same way here. Soon as I step out the door I'm soaked with sweat.

Actually, when you're from Northern Michigan, it's both. Your theory would be like me justifying our winters, to you, by claiming "It's not the cold that gets you, it's the wind chill"

"It's not the fall that get's ya, it's the sudden stop at the end." Yes sirie, heat stroke is heat stroke, wheter it's in dry heat or humidity.

Very true. I've pushed the limit with heat stroke my share up here. Actually hit heat exhaustion a few times as well.
We actually get fairly high humidity around here. Not Florida high but..........
