1. Florida streets and roads are not really compatible with Texas trucks. We do fine on the Interstate Highways but when we get off of those and on to regular roads - not so much. The residential streets are killing me. I've been bounced over every curb within a 30 mile radius because we can't make the turn without hitting a car or the curb and he always chooses the curb.
2. The GPS indicates that a place is 14 miles away but that it will take 40 minutes to get there. In fact, it will take well over an hour to get there. Maybe two. Apparently distances on the GPS are measured as the crow flies while time is measured in real time with ideal circumstances. I still haven't figured out why everything seems so close but it takes so long to get there.
3. When it doesn't rain, it is very hot. It's likely that next year about this time we will be taking the RV to a slightly cooler climate but with this year's house hunting mission, we'll be here until we find a place and get settled in - no matter how hot it gets.
