Why Would ANYONE Ever Go to Your City/State?!?

[Blackknight]

I really, really want to visit St. Petersburg and Valaam.

As far as why you would want to come to Michigan, we have lots of camping, hunting, fishing and other outdoor activities. Can't forget about the Great Lakes either. 1/5 of the world's fresh water right there.

The ocean (see my avatar)
Cape Canaveral (rocket/shuttle launches - night launches are the best!)
Ron Jon surf shop (I love that place lol)

There's not a whole lot in my immediate area, mostly b/c we're a sleepy little technology town. But, FL has some beautiful beaches on both coasts. Of course, there is Key West, too. Can't leave without buying at least one pair of Kinos!

We also have quite a bit of culture in the major cities, as well as an abundance of amusement/theme parks.

I'm sorry but I forgot, what part of FL are you in?

If you don't come to Anderson, we'll talk bad about your momma.

Melbourne - just south of Cocoa Beach.

hmm I just google mapped florida and it made me want to go visit my sister

Well if I ever get a week or 2 off, I may go drive down to FL, and if I do, I could probably visit you, you are right on my way to my sis, or back from her place. I guess to get to FL I just hop on 95 and take it for like 750 miles or so lol. So maybe one day!

Where does she live?

Where does she live?

She's right in between deerfield beach and fort lauderdale. And my parents are on the other coast in estero, right by fort myers. So they are pretty much a straight line to eachother down that one highway, Alligator alley if you've ever heard of it (don't remember which actual highway it is). And for me to go there, I'd have to take 95 straight down to my sis, or I'd have to fly.

I'm very familiar with the area. I grew up in West Palm Beach. I lived there until about 4 yearss ago.

Small world! I have a great aunt/uncle that live there. Their daughter (my 2nd cousin) lives in Naples with her family. It's beautiful over there.

Umm yeah - you don't live in South FL for 30+ years without knowing about Alligator Alley...and crossing it a few times.

And for me to go there, I'd have to take 95 straight down to my sis, or I'd have to fly.

Depending on where you're at in NC, it would be a 10-12 hour drive. Fly if you can get a good rate. lol

haha yes! I love alligator alley! Anytime I visit my family down there we drive it and count the alligators and stuff, it's so crazy! Although having a car break down there would be like the worst thing ever haha!

And yeah, mapquest told me around 11 hours. I've driven that far by myself before and I prefer driving to flying, but those trips are kind of rough so we'll see. Just saying, if I ever do drive, and you'd want to hang out, I'd be game!

You could make a pit stop in Melbourne and we could grab a late lunch or something.
