dove 0 #1 February 15, 2004 Okay - so this whole living in Florida in the winter and up north in the summer thing is getting old. I'm starting to think Cali might be the ideal place to live. Heck, I'd be there already if the cost of living wasn't so high. But I've got some questions for you California folks. Like can you jump all week long during the summer months or does it get horribly slow (like Florida where the DZs shut down for 2 days a week)? Are there more affordable places to live or is it pretty much obscenely expensive everywhere? Is car insurance there outrageous? And finally..... Anyone looking for a roommate this summer? I'm very well behaved and extremely neat. Edited to clarify I'm thinking of southern California. Fall in dove. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dove 0 #3 February 16, 2004 Why leave Florida? Because it is DEAD in the summer. Not just in skydiving but everywhere. Like a ghost town. I wanna be able to jump hard year round and somewhere that they jump on the weekdays all year long since my job often requires me to travel on the weekends. Fall in dove.
