Hi Wendy,
I remember going to Florida a couple of times when I was younger & informing my cousin from Florida that she had an accent. She said no that y'all are the ones with the accent. LOL I was raised in S. Calif. also & am happy to be in Oregon now. I like all the green & the rain we get here doesn't bother me. Now down there in Fla you have the best of both worlds as you have the green & the rain & the sun (all at once sometimes). LOL Thanks for the info about yourself.
