Make notes in your calendars for the following dates: June 30, Sept. 30, Dec. 31 and March 31 and June 30, 2018.

It will be worthwhile on those dates — actually, the weeks after — to watch for the news stories reporting on Florida’s tourism traffic and spending.

Scott, of course, railed that this will cost Florida jobs and lost tourism spending. Let’s remember to see who was right.
