Hello! Florida

Day 585, 09:41 • Published in USA USA • by Miche Llorens

So I move to Louisiana to hopefully become congressmen there, apperantly it wasn't successful. Why you may ask, well I never live in Louisiana so I'm not really familiar with it since I have life my life in the Great State of Florida. But it good to be back home 🙂 So I decided to write a little bit about Florida today, like what happen today on June 27 through Florida history.




TODAY IN FLORIDA HISTORY
