 Hi my name is Caleb or cable or Caleb again whichever you prefer. This is the first post on my blog so here's some info about me that may or may not be true. I am currently 19 (turning 20 next month). I'm originally from Columbus, Georgia but moved down to Jacksonville in 2014/2015 (I can't remember). I'm taking this class about the history of Florida so I can learn more about the state and what kind of history it has that we can still see to this day.
