I've often thought that was a dumb motto- California is more sunny. Florida should be:
The Hurricane State
The Soggy State
The Disney State
The Gun Owners Paradise
The Senile Driver's Paradise
The Geezer State
The Hurricane State
The Soggy State
The Disney State
The Gun Owners Paradise
The Senile Driver's Paradise
The Geezer State

I can't stand it anymore. These summer monsoons have brought over 20" of rain in one month. This is not morning people type of weather. Who stole my sunshine? This is the Sunshine State. Obviously the idiot who thought of that one was a snowbird.

Green lion you are correct. This is the 3rd week in a row. I think I may know of a way to get some oars on the bike. I just need to find a way to get it to float!!!!!!!!!!

Actually, it's been very warm, humid, sticky and unstable here for about 3 days now- it's like being in soup! We've had thunderstorm watches and warnings on and off. However, it's supposed to end and tomorrow is supposed to be cooler, drier and sunny. Then we're supposed to get HOT weather in time for the long weekend (canada day)- it'll be about 85 degrees, almost FL temps!

Fellow Floridians, did you get a little dose of that sunshine that was hanging around this AM? I got an hour and a half of riding time in before it clouded over. Do you think the worst is over?

Did it really go away? I don't remember because if it did, it's back. This is week 5 or 6 I think. We did have a few short days off. I seem to remember some long rides like the one on the 4th was nice and sunny. There was sunlight filtering through the canopy of trees overhead. It felt good to sweat. Maybe it's time to invest in a trainer but it just wouldn't be the same. The combination of sunlight, perspiration and fresh air can't be duplicated indoors. Ugh. Help!!
