    I just flew back late last night from a weeks trip in Orlando, FL. I enjoyed my visit, and pleased to see a few Prii every once in awhile.

    I was attending "The Landmark Forum", put on by "Landmark Education", and it was awesome! Got a lot of great info from their seminar.

    I didn't see too many Prii buzzing around downtown Orlando, but out in the suburbs there was quite a few. I had a Cadillac CTS to drive for the week, and man was I sure excited to get back in my Prius today!

    Wednesday I went from Orlando to Cocoa beach, and that trip is when I saw the most Prii on the road, I was so excited! A lot of them had bra's on! So if any of you live in those area's maybe it was you!

    Florida was nice, just not for me- I don't like FLAT terrain, guess that's the Californian in me. I do liked how it rained almost every day- that was awesome! Reminded me of Hawaii!

    My Prius gets very good mpg on that flat terrain. :)

    Did you see my car while you were here? :lol: You are correct. There aren't too many of us here.

    Yeah, mine's sorta hard to spot way up here in Pensacola, what with all the pickups blocking the view. . . We don't call this area "LA" for nothing. "LA", by the way, stands for Lower Alabama.

    Yep, one of the more delicious regional Prius experiences so far -- enjoying filling up at the pump next to the one where one of those "that thang got a hemi it it?" types is pumping the entire daily output of the Gulf of Mexico into the thirsty maw on the side of his Dodge Ram. Am I being cruel. . .? ;)

    Nope, I find I am quite smug about that experience myself. After all they chose to buy the stupid gas guzzling monstrosity when they could have shown a little more common sense. It isn't as if gas hasn't been going up for the last 5 years straight. :rolleyes:

    Clovis/Fresno is flat, but you drive 25 minutes and you are in the mountains. We are only 1.5 hours from Yosemite Natl Park, or Sequoia Natl Park.

    Next month I will be making my move to So-Cal, so watch out for my Prius!

    I just have to say, be VERY very careful with this group. While some may disagree with me, I personally would go so far as to call them a full-fledged cult. I don't trust them one bit.
