Can’t wait. It should be fun.
Just wanted to take a moment this morning to reiterate the “Rain or Shine” section of the poster. This is still your community when it’s grey out. You’ve got umbrellas and ponchos leftover from trips to Niagara Falls, etc. right? And you’re not scared of the cold! I thought so. See you in a few hours, Jacksonville.
