Florida Cracker Crumbs: Florida Factoid Friday

Verse of the Day

“For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love. For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.” (2 Peter 1:5-8)

My MIL graduated from there in the 30's and when she was alive I took her to bi-annual meetings with the elderly folk... it was a blast.; 26/10/09 12:57 PM
