What's the deal with Fumbuck county??
If they had sheep down there... we'd have an additional line of jokes for the place... currently this car is in Polk County (People Of Little Knowledge)... made locally famous (in here) due to being home to internet scammer/flipper Lakeland Lash.
Fumbuck County is a little farther south... and is best recognized while driving by the increase in the number of "blue tarp roofs" since our most recent hurricane.
Polk county seems to be cleaning up, as I observed on my most recent scenic drive through the place... What used to be the popular style of placing defunct cars on blocks in front of your single wide, has been replaced by cashing out the car for scrap and abandoning whats left of the single wide... It is a great place to observe "mid century mobile home construction techniques" with a smattering of newer construction exposed by the storm ripping the exterior siding off these beauties.
I recently made this trip, but neglected to take pictures as I couldn't find my camera. I4 was a known mess, so I enjoyed the scenery along state highway 17 driving back to Orlando... hadn't been through there in more than a decade. Local commerce has apparently improved as well, as I saw many new off brand gas stations had been built along with a number of new red light intersections to help you stop and support the local economy. I wonder if the lights have caused property taxes to increase.
All I could think the whole journey is how much better the scenery would have been watching the back bumper of an unwashed semi trailer for 30 miles of sitting on I4.
It was apparent I had returned to Orange County by the drivers surrounding me all texting while dodging lanes to (usually) wind up falling back in traffic. I knew I had crossed the county line when one self-absorbed twit went 80mph to get in front of me so they could jamb the brakes and make a left turn from the right lane (six lane road). I think most of us will agree it feels good to be home after any journey... in O-town, it feels good to be home with the paint and bumpers intact.
