    City Specific…

    First, the state:

    The first permanent European settlement was founded here by Spain.
    The city with the highest number of lightning strikes per capita is located in this state.
    This state was thought to contain the Fountain of Youth...but nobody has ever found it.

    Now the city:
    Installed the first ATM especially designed for rollerbladers.
    Is home to two wildly popular television crime series, but in different decades.
    (extra bragging rights for naming both TV shows);)

    We'll see y'all down the road...Cheers!:)

    hmm, foutain of youth is in St Augustine. Lovely place that. But i have no idea about the crime shows - Miami came to mind, but I don't have cable, so I miss a lot (which is fine)

    Florida is the state. Don Johnson I believe stared in one called Miami Vice. Is the other CSI Miami?

    In the nineties I worked as a Quality Assurance Manager for a high end division of Harman Kardon. We had more home electronic equipment come back from Florida for repair with fried circuit boards because of lightening.

    AJs Human - you're going to have to number these so we can tell which ones are new and which ones old (not that I mind reading old posts)

    I'll start doing that. Thanks for the suggestion. :)

    I'm due in Greater Miami tomorrow. I hope the rest of this storm blows over so we can get some sunshine in the Sunshine State.:)

    Here's another suggestion … take of picture of AJ in each of these places (you know something distinctive in the background) then post so we can see/guess.

    I've been trying to do that…it's not as easy to reach the distinctive landmarks with a semi as with other vehicles, including RV's. All the really cool places have signs up that say "No Trucks" and it really bums me out.

    I understand, though, because there are so many truck drivers who just throw their trash where ever they want instead of find a garbage can. And they pee on the ground rather than expend the extra energy to walk 75 feet into the bathroom. Trucker areas reek to an eye-watering level in hot areas because of this.

    But I do try to find distinctive landmarks when I can...the little lake in Minnesota, the rock formation in Colorado, coastal trees in North Carolina....
    I will try to find more landmarks I can access.

    So, I guess I couldn't have seen you in my recent trip throught the city of flying pigs (for those unaware, there is one). Two hours of stop and go southbound, trying to get to the airport. I was in the backseat and looked at every truck on the off chance there might be an AJ sighting. Obviously, no luck, as you were a few time zones away :) Had I seen AJ, I might have jumped out of the car I was in and jumped into your truck for a couple of miles…just to say 'Hi'...that's how slow going it was. My advise, for north or southbound, take the by-pass...but what do I know? There were plenty of trucks willing to wade through the traffic.

    @Basenjimamma: …Oh, I want one of those generators too..they are just so darn expensive..We need them down here too, if we have a storm, our neighborhood of 25 or so homes are one of the last on the list to get our power back..it sucks.. We do have a generator that is large enough to either run the fridge and a few lamps, OR our waterpump..so you have to pick your battles when the electricity goes.. Yeah, see my problem is I want the whole house automatically on when the power goes out - gone are the days when I find it an adventure! As it is, I've compromised and were only doing the first floor (including all kitchen, laundry, office, bedrooms, bath, basement - furnace, well/water) and the only thing on the 2nd floor will be the bathroom. During the ice storm last winter we lost power for 4 days. During the ice storm of 98 (?) we lost power for 17days - CNN was filming right in front of our house. :eek:

    @Natalplum: You both are in my thoughts. I hope your DH comes home safe and healthy. You will NEVER be lonely with your B's around. They are the best to call on for some love and comfort. Not to mention a lot of laughs! That's the best thing having a B brought into my life. I was so depressed, and then along came a B to make me laugh again. Worth their weight in gold, for sure….
