I have a distant cousin (whom we don't acknowledge) who was busted there on prostitution charges a few months ago. A proud family moment, to be sure. It is always entertaining to gawk at the meth-heads lolling alongside the road trying to entice customers. Yucky, but entertaining.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1349290550527925310.post-53967761745468137252010-05-27T21:29:31.171-04:002010-05-27T21:29:31.171-04:00Stew- Progress, beach erosion and money.

South Beach is eight hours and a universe away from Jacksonville, FL which is a spit away and much more like her neighbor in Brunswick, GA. The panhandle is another world as well. Add to this the changes going on all over the state and it's a moving target. <br /><br />I would say that NEast FL (from Jacksonville down to Palm Coast) is very southern. A lot has changed in 30 years to be sure but the attitudes, food, politics and culture remain the same. And I don't know if that's good or bad.tintinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13652066200071703445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1349290550527925310.post-38776782163791592772010-05-26T01:04:10.755-04:002010-05-26T01:04:10.755-04:00I've never really considered Florida part of t...I've never really considered Florida part of the South. I know that it's very much southern in terms of geography, but it just seems different to me than the rest of the South. Always has. I'm headed down to Destin in a couple days though where I will be spending a week in the non-South south. Looking forward to it.Memphis88noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1349290550527925310.post-13772751031991531542010-05-25T21:14:55.727-04:002010-05-25T21:14:55.727-04:00JMW- Not difficult for military brats.

I don't know what made you take some of the images you did, but some are quite telling. I'm with JMW, my mind would hurt too much if I had to shuttle between the two, and make sense of it all. <br /><br />Glad you like where you settled now.
