Completely agree. After 30 years we finally bailed on Ohio (was Michigan before that). Turns out we were allergic to the midwest. Either the mold from all the rain, or pollen, or stagnant air in the valley. Can't remember the last time we had a decent rain here, just a brief shower a few weeks ago and the occasional snow. The dry air takes some time to get used to and its pretty dusty.

Same thing with me. I had allergies there for about 8 months a year. Move down here I get it bad for two weeks when everything is yellow, and allergies are gone. No clue what it was but am so glad to be done with those.

This post brought back so many memories. Got my first YJ when I was an undergrad at Texas Tech - loved taking the top/doors off and cruising the deserts of West Texas. Moved to Columbus, OH for grad school and stepped right into the suck. To add insult to injury, a wrong-way drunk driver totaled it a year later.

Moved to Florida with my second YJ - much better (except for the summer monsoons).

It was beautiful yesterday and should be beautiful today until it starts raining again this evening. Installed the soft top on the Gladiator yesterday and the Sunrider for hardtop on the other half's JLUS this morning.

I had the soft top back (somehow “down” just doesn’t seem right) for the second time yesterday. I am about to go do it again before the rain hits again tonight and stays for four days.

Wife and I went down to Marietta over the weekend to watch our son at a track meet and decided to take the freedom panels off on the way home. Weather was mid 60s and wasn’t bad with the windows up. Took a little detour on the way home to see Big Muskie’s Bucket

Wondering what's keeping your SO in MD. I lived in College Park for a while. Nice area, but OMG-High property taxes!

Come visit Colorado this summer. You'll be glad you did. And maybe SO will want to move here. We need cool Jeep people like you and less burnouts who think we have free weed falling from the skies. ?
