    Thank you for sharing your video, Karla! I enjoyed the thorough tour.It's good to know that even at the really big group hangs, people are still friendly and have that small town attitude. I had to laugh at your description of Florida weather. I grew up in South Louisiana, which is similar, and moved to WI after college. that 61*, 90% humidity settles cold in your bones and is so different than the 61* and sunny after a stretch of freezing days.

    I'm down in AL now, but if I were still in IL/WI, I would definitely plan on making one of the hangs that you organize. They look like so much fun!

    Yeah, I'm not making fun of Floridians who wear down jackets at 60 degrees ever again. And you should totally join us up here for a hang!!! It'd be GREAT to have you!
