Aww shucks,thatā€™s right in the middle of my neck of the woods, but Iā€™m in a cabin at 8500ā€™ in Colorado at the moment.
Not worked in Carlyn but have done a fair bit in Terra Ceia park next door. Our places are mostly snowbirds with the money to spend 4-6 months every winter here. Carlyn, on the other hand, is
full of retiree incomers who have decided that Florida is the place to live despite the fact that they havenā€™t got any money and the cost of living is a site more here than Ohio*, that park is falling apart.


* You may insert other fly over states here as you see fit.

Sorry, unable to attach the story, if anyone can help.

My good lady had heard about this story via the usual sources available to local locals, when I mentioned this post her comment was that the term Florida man is being avoided in this story, as it doesnā€™t fit the hooray-Henry image Sarasota likes to portray.

Florida woman arrested after allegedly grabbing boyfriendā€™s testicles, squeezing them ā€˜until they were bleedingā€™

She got testy with her boyfriend.

Katie Lee Pitchford, 21, was arrested and charged after allegedly assaulting her live-in boyfriend until he bled.

The Indian Harbour Beach Police Department were called to the scene after a man reported that his girlfriend became ā€œenragedā€ and attacked him during an altercation in the early hours last Tuesday, according to a police report obtained by the Daily News.

Pitchford, of Floridaā€™s Indian Harbour Beach, continuously struck her boyfriend, who was not named, with her fists and scratched the left side of his face, he told police.

He also told officers that Pitchford ā€œgrabbed him by his b---s and squeezed them until they were bleeding,ā€ according to the report.

I was tempted to buy a t-shirt that said "Mess With Me, You Mess With The Whole Trailer Court" at the Red Barn Flea Market.
