I have left the cold and dreary wheat fields of Kansas for the warmer climate of South Carolina and Central Florida to visit family for Christmas and New Years. Somehow the FJ found it's way along. Here are some photos to kick things off.

Fred,
youre making me homesick. what a great father Daughter day for you both. is that St.Augustine Lighthouse?

The Villages is close to the Ocala national Forest, some good roads there.

I start my 2 day journey home in the morning, should hit Florida evening of the 28th and hope to ride with you before you head home.

Scott,

The lighthouse is the Hunting Island Lighthouse on Hunting Island South Carolina. I have spent a week in South Carolina and will head down to Florida tomorrow for a week.

Have a safe trip home from the Alaskan North. I am looking forward to riding with you, Steve, Nancy and Jeff.

What a great x-mas vacation riding to faraway places and seeing old friends and making new ones ,you are having an excellent time to be sure.

Keep it coming, the snowed in guys need it so they don't lose it . Just staring at the fj and not riding will drive you mad.
