I'm actually in Clearwater, around the area where US-60/Gulf to Bay meets Missouri Avenue.

You know what I really wanted from Omaha? Some Mister C's spaghetti sauce. No dice carrying it on an airplane though. Grrr.

Do they still sell that? i thought mister c's closed, but i could be wrong. If they carry it in the stores, i can bring some back for you. I have friends in dunedin that i visit occasionally, so that's a little closer than brandon LOL

Mister C's did close, back in 2007. They still sell the spaghetti sauce though, I know Hy-Vee and Bakers usually have it in stock. When my great uncle went back for a funeral last year he bought me a jar, but the TSA wouldn't let him take it on the plane.

Are you driving back? If so I'd happily pay for the cost plus a little extra something for the trouble!

We're flying back but i can try to put it in my checked bags. I'll just bring some bubble wrap and put it in plastic.

Thanks MountainMen. I remember trying to do that on their website a couple years back but it wasn't functioning right so I gave up.

Default Accepted! Omaha here I come....

Just a quick email to thank everyone who assisted with helping my wife and I decide between Omaha, NE and Charleston, SC. My wife and I pulled the easel into the living room and on a humongous piece of paper wrote down all the necessities and niceties that we consider a "good quality of life". Our categories were: Restaurants, Entertainment, Shopping, Music/Art, Housing, Crime, School system, Transportation, Utilities, Traffic, Weather, Geographical location, Airport, etc. Again we were very specific in each area. Our family and friends think we are absolutely NUTS to pick Omaha over Charleston but we think they are NUTS for judging an area based on what they don't know as opposed to what they do no. Arrrghhh Anyway, OMAHA HERE WE COME!!! Thank you all for your assistance and I hope to become a major contributor to the forum.
