Florida Skoolies

[brokedown]

I think we will be missing any Florida events until fall rolls around. It's time to get north!

[Scott Marcano]

you'll miss all the best SCUBA diving doing that,.......................

get some beefy tires if you are going north... the long range weather models ive been studying. (I like to storm chase for sport).. are showing warmer than normal but WAY WETTER than normal for most all areas north, midwest, and east... the El-Nino hasnt Flipped like expected so a rainy spring it will be... alot of stuff looks like May will bring drier and probably s p[retty hot start to the "summer" season up north...

all subject to change.. but somethiung to think about if jumping out of florida so soon..

as for me, i want to take the RedByrd up to Ohio to tear it in pieces for cooling system flushing / switch to ELC, and possibly upgrading the stock cooling system, replace water pump, while in there I may as well update the LPOP, change the ICP, IPR, and maybe install a Dash A/C...

that bus may be torn down at the time the event is... (as long as it isnt constant rain up north...).. I dont plan to take apart the DEV for awhile, so good possibility I could drive it down for the event.

Given that it typically rains straight through from early June to mid September here, I'm good with a few storms while we slow poke our way around the country.
