Right on the East Coast, 'bout an hour away from Orlando. Matter of fact, I'll be coming to Tallahassee March 2-4 for work. I haven't been to Tallahassee in about 3-4 years.

Ha ha! too funny!!

North Carolina - "Tobacco is a vegetable" I remember riding through North Carolina on the way to GA as a child and seeing nothing but "the stuff that people smoke" as my grandmother put it. So true.
