    For the first time in my life, Im taking a vacation that doesnt include- trailing my car someplace, drinking beer in a parking lot till 2am, rummaging through parts all day and smelling like burnt rubber!!

    Going to Florida for a whole week after Easter! The ONLY car related thing Im doing is hitting the Don Garlits museum. Gonna visit some family, shoot some guns, visit the keys and lay on a beach and do NOTHING!!!

    I might glance at the local Craigslist...

    The Paradise Inn in Key West is a great place to stay. One block of Duval St it also offers off street parking. There is a boat that runs from Ft Myers Beach to Key West I think its running if not its a fun drive. Enjoy

    Gonna be gone a whole WEEK?

    I will look into reserving a decent sized U-Haul, can you leave the house key under the door mat so I can lock the door back for you when I leave? Heh heh

    Seriously enjoy your vacation, sounds great!

    I am in about the same mood, brother and almost to the point I don’t want 90% of my tools either.
    All I do is move parts back and forth out of the way.
    My main projects are keepin the daily drivers going and building dance props for our daughters students.
    Enjoy your trip Jason:)

    2 Thumbs lets see if you can find any deals in Florida, barn finds there are plenty of old and young people to prey on. Have a safe trip and what happens in the keys stays in the keys. ;););););););););););):p

    Went to the keys 15+ years ago on a "fishing trip". Four days later the only water I saw was the hot tub at the resort. Day after day of drunken' debauchery!
