LOVE IT, LOVE IT LOVE IT
We chose it because of the history, hardly no crime, people speak English so we can talk to others, quiet , one of the most republican counties in the state, nearly 70% goes for the republican candidate, near to JAX, heck we don’t even have any Dems in power for the county.
It’s amazing when you stand at the exact place where the first prayer was ever said in N, America, there is a small chapel there which we take visitors when they come and the grounds are beautiful.
LOL and there is a cross over 200 foot which can be seen very far away and lit up at night and the ACLU can’t do a thing to pull it down.
If you ever come down then by all means give us a shout and we’d more than happy to show you around or give you info on where to go so you don’t go getting ripped off.
Oh and we just lowered our property taxes recently and it’s much cheaper here than down in the south of the state.
We get a weather change climate unlike the south part of the state.

Thanks for the kind invite, many moons ago I almost went to work for an FM station there, 'WSOS' but as things go in radio, sometimes they 'click' and sometimes they don't. I spent a lot of years in Jacksonville with WCRJ both in country and news/talk format, so my familiarity with St. Augustine is pretty good although I've never actually lived in your locale, I know one thing: you and yours are definitely blessed to be in that part of the Sunshine State.
When I was a little kid (a REAL long time ago), my parents and I were passing through St. Augustine on our way back from Orlando, and we were approaching the OLD Bridge of Lions (before it got upgraded) and the bells started ringing, the barriers came down, there was a boat going up the St. John's, and on that hot August day, my Mom said for some unknown reason "wouldn't it be funny if the drawbridge got stuck?" and sure enough, she called the shot, the bridge wouldn't go back down, and we had to sit in that heat with all those other motorists for almost an hour while a Coast Guard cutter came down the St. John's to literally throw the switch under the bridge, I gotta laugh.
Best to you always Manc! :)
