Moving to Florida the 7th.

Native Virginian, tired of the cold and snow, ready for warmer climate.

Was great meeting some of you guys, and wish you all the very best.

Thanks jshaf, I spent many years working towards doing this, and it finally has happened.

I finally have a garage, and can clean this baby up anytime, been down a month and a half and have been in shorts and t-shirts all but 5 days. Love this climate.

Take care of yourself and that beautiful ride.

Congrats! I'm military currently stationed in the Northern Virginia area. Such simple things like year round running water, a garage, and good opportunities to drive the Camaro are hard to come by here. I'm from Texas so I can relate to your new luxuries. I think it's time to really start enjoying yourself with a few winter car projects. Just put on shorts and don't even check the weather!

Thanks Turbo_J89.

I was right down 28 from you in Centreville. I will enjoy this weather for all of you in the colder climate!

After the kids all graduate, I am headed at least to North Carolina. Need more moderate temps.. .
Also have family in Fla, so a visit is always possible for me...

I thought about North Carolina, but they still get snow and ice... not acceptable for me.

Have inlaws down here as well, and have always loved the area when we visited. It's like being on vacation every day.

Best wishes when the kids graduate.
