Florida, Day 2

Jacksonville rocks. I never realized how big this town is. It covers the entire spectrum of ways of life, city, suburbs, rural and beach. I had the chance to explore some today and I really like what I see. There is a ton of stuff to do and cool places to go. I looked at a house today in a rural area north of here. I really liked it, it was almost 2,000 square ft on an acre of land. It has a pond in the front and a pool in the back. The back yard is full of cool trees with moss hanging off them like you see in the south. It also has a huge concrete driveway that would be perfect for wrenching on my cars. Its in the middle of nowhere but its between the highway and the beach. I know its the first house I looked at but unless something I look at later this week really sticks out I may buy this one. The other areas I will be looking are kind of "good old boy" territory where people like to drive trucks with big tires and shoot stuff, especially yankees like me. I didnt find out when my interview is as the company was closed today. I had to get good shoes when I was out as I didnt bring any with me, they are pretty cool. I also ate at a Krystal burger, which is the southern version of White Castle. If youve never eaten at one of these places you wouldnt understand, they fuckin rule. On the way back from the house my real estate agent took me on one of those ferrys that you drive your car onto, cool stuff. Im so psyched about moving here, January is going to be a crazy month for tying up loose ends at home and making sure my sister is all set. I think Artie misses his sister, poor little guy. I hope Chloe is doing ok without her dad, it the longest Ive gone with not seeing her. Shes in good hands with auntie Joy though, she probably doesnt even know Im gone. Ok Im done for now.

It sounds frickin' awesome Tim!  I'm going to need to see some pictures to verify that claim though.

Ahh Tim I am so glad you are enjoying yourself, the house sounds pretty cool.  Was that the house in Sanderson or a different one? 

Treat yourself to a Checkers burger with seasoned cheesy fries, those rock.  You might know it a Rally's not sure if they have them in CT, but man they are almost as good as Krystal.

Anywhoo glad you are having a great time!!

Edit:  Just realized based on your description (Between beach and highway) it can't be in Sanderson...that's further West.
