Lakewood Ranch you say? MD11s you say? All-cargo you say?
We vacationed one christmas over in Lakewood Ranch, in a 2 million dollar house with a pool and a hottub under a lanai with the whole side of the house opening to the pool. I fell in love with LR.
I have gobs of training experience. I love jumpseating on our MD11s. in fact for my last FAM Ride was an all MD11 ride, I did 45 hours on it. KMEM-PHNL-YSSY-VHHH-RCTP-RJBB-KOAK-KPHX-KMEM
Just dont tell my wife there is an airline in the SRQ area, or she will move (she has family there, and a bunch of friends that live in the Pinecraft area). However, the last time I was there in SRQ for any length of time, I saw a traffic accident daily.
But yeah, the SRQ beaches cant be beat - but I'd want to live in LR, Bird Key, or St Armands...
