Question Florida Natives ...?

Just curious ... Any Florida native (Crackers) in the Chapter ?

I was born & raised in central Florida and relocated from Christmas, Florida up to the panhandle cuz' of overpopulation.

I've lived in Florida all my 23yrs. born and raised here. Florida crackers are getting few and far between.

Dern close. Born in Ft. Myers and lived in Florida my whole life except for about 2 years in Texas while a toddler. I figure, everyone wants to retire here, so why bother leaving when I'm already here.

That's my old stompin ground right there. Lived in Deltona from 83-03. You ever spend any time out at Duck Lake? I spent a lot of weekends out there starting in '95. It's too bad they shut that area down to develop it. A lot of good memories made out there...
