Hey, if you go to the one at enchanted parkway look for the white mark around the storm drain. Its in the center of the lot. Just after purchasing a brand new truck I went to that depot. When I was driving along I spotted a paint rattle can rolling down. I swerved and it still made it under my tire. I sounded like a grenade going off, and about thirty feet away the can landed. I thought it was funny at first, but as I drove on I looked in my mirror. I saw a sheet of white under my truck less four patches of black from where the tires were. I suddenly had that sick feeling as I pondered what the rest of my new truck looked like. I parked it and my worst fear was suddenly realized. Paint underneath, on the tires, wheels, mirrors,running boards and yes the drivers side front to back top to bottom. I wanted so bad to find the dipstick that let that can get away. I hoped someone would ask me if I had found a can of white paint.

Theres a guy on marine view just south of the masonic home. There three new houses along there. One guy has a teal/while truck that looks pretty nice. I am sure you have seen it.
