So, there are a few names for you to seek out...hope they don't mind that I mentioned any of them...and hopefully they will make themselves known soon to you.

When you due to be in the area?
Adam here. Welcome to the area! Be sure to leave your "Winter Wardrobe" in Indiana. You won't be needing it here. We only have 2 seasons here - hot, and really freakin' hot. ;-) haha. Anyway, you'll find a small, but tightly close-knit group of great people down here! Need some help? Just ask. You'll have to time your spring time visit with one of our meets. They are the first Saturday of every month.

yeah it's not too terrible. I grew up in northern missouri, and while it's not terribly colder being humid and cold kinda sucks.

Usually pretty mild - a 'tit-bit-nipply' in the mornings and warms up a little in the afternoon. Once every couple of years we get an ice storm. Some people had power out for almost a week last year. Apparently, they haven't figured out how to trim the tree branches away from the power lines yet. What's that called? Oh yeah, "preventative maintenance". Anyway, back on topic, I can usually be found sporting a short sleeved t-shirt and either a hoodie or a jacket during the winter. And you can ask Minda, my ceiling fan stays on year round. Any snow or ice is usually gone within 24 hours. It's not too bad really. No need to put the 7 into storage over the winter or anything drastic like that. Just choose not to drive it during inclement weather. :-)

And greg, are you on call this weekend?

Masin, I've been saying "tit-bit-nipply" years before i met you. Years before I even moved to the carolinas. lol. It's actually quite common and more widespread than you might think.

Put it this way, I just walked in. It's about 9:40pm. I'm wearin jeans and a tshirt and was very comfortable. Granted, it will get pretty cold sometimes, but winters are pretty fair, overall.
