I always hear how nice it is in Jacksonville. In fact I've meet people from
there who own property in Orlando-but never go because they hate the weather
there. Once a year my aunt calls to tell me how nice the weather was that
day (or two!) Oh well.
Part of the reason I'm looking forward so much to Triumphest is because San
Luis Obispo area has such a nice "autumny" october! Can't wait! We're
getting there, down here--can't come soon enough!
Happy Trails!
Laura G. and Nigel
