First the trivia question...no Helen sorry not Mr. McKewon, but a very good guess and he would be a second choice.

Secondly Helen, you are not confused. I live, work and have my business in St. Lucia. I do come home and keep a residence in Florida. I ended up in Florida because of my former business partner. My daughters are in uni there. One in Gainesville and the other Orlando.

Rich I know Clearwater very well. We had residence in Port Richey for 4 years. My ex-business partner and one of my best friends is originally from Clearwater. He now lives in Hollywood of all places! I really like the Tampa area. Although it's still flat, you can live in the suburbs or countryside and still be an hour away from the city.

We now have residence in Orlando. My first impression of Orlando was when the plane was landing. All I could think of was miles and miles of concrete ugly houses. My husband and I are planning on moving back home in the next year or two. He's never seen snow, and since three of our children will be in uni at some satge in the next 5 years, we're looking to move to Jacksonville. I find it much more appealing. We will be right near the border to Georgia and the mountains and still by the sea which I love.

Rich, three of my children and myself all miss the change of seasons. I've spoken with a lot of different northerners that have settled to Flordia or the islands. I'd estimate that 75% of that I;ve spoken to feel the same way about missing the north. My plan is to retire to England or back up north. I have a business trip to CT at the end of September and I am hoping the leaves will be changing by that point.

Helen, I watch as my girls are wearing the same clothes as we did. I have a few pair of platforms too, but I nix the bell bottoms. I don't want to try and look like a teenager. I didn't know Tom Hanlon was the choral director at BOR. What a great job for him! Please give him my best when you see him again.

Okay Rich it looks like we've not remembered the song. Time to tell us! Lee I don't remember Wipe Out as the last song.
