Howdy People. Well I was scheduled off today. So I actually slept in until about 1115a when my alarm clock arrived (Missy). We watched some TV and chatted about the usual blah blah blah. Then I decided I would clean up and we walked up to his house. I figured it had been a while since we had gone out to the "Den of Inequity" (Streamline Bar). I would treat to a couple of rounds. We got up there and with the weather in the low 80's, it made me recall why I live here. The weather in Florida can be odd at times. Today was one of those days. It was cloudy, gloomy, breezy, then calm, sunny all in one. As we were walking up to Missy's house we walked through the back streets. There are so many cool houses that I know I have walked past but dont remember. The walk was good and soothing for the mind. Well, we were gonna catch the bus down to the bar. We literally missed the bus as it passed right in front of us. So we sat there at the bus stopped and soaked up some of that passing sun. 
Then Dan was kind enough and picked us up and dropped us off at the bar. The best thing about the Streamline is the view. It's literally a 360 degree panoramic view of the city. The weather was perfect. We could see the waves breaking up and down the beach. I told John I would miss all the good times that I have had here over the last 9 yrs. I've met some of the best quality people while living here. I've planted some deep roots here. There's just something about the area that lurks me here. But, I'm gonna transplant those roots in Tampa and move on to better things. I've acquired that philosophy that "life is what you make it". I used to be cocky and bitter, but now I'm more mellow and laidback. Now, its not important who gets the last word. Change doesnt happen over night, thats for sure. But, I look back over this year and I have to say I have grown up a good bit. I guess I'm like a bottle of wine, the older I get the better I get. LOL. Simplicity at it's best is my way of life these days. I haven't been happier in life and things couldn't be going much better. I've accomplished alot of my long term goals this year and accomplished alot I never expected. From thinking at the beginning of the year that I wouldnt be leaving Daytona for another 3 years to now moving to Tampa next month. Never thought I would be able to go to NC to visit all of my family at once this year. Let's just say I'm pleased with this year as a whole. It's one of my better ones for the books. Thanks to all out there that have contributed. Well, I'm done babbling for the night. As always, PeAcE oUt!!!
