Florida at its best...

By

The sun is gentler, and now you can go to the beach even in the middle of the day. Morning air is crisp; you see far and clear.  The colors are subtle and beautiful, and evenings on the beach are mesmerizing…

We stopped going to the beach early, as the sun comes up later, and the air is in the 60s at night, so we wait till the sun brings it to nice high 70s - low 80s…

The water in the ocean is still warm, but not as much for Floridians, who stop swimming in the ocean when it is less than 77F.

And it is unbelievably quiet. The busy season is over, rare tourists stroll the streets and the beach. Few cars at hotels, fewer cars on the roads.

I truly believe this is the best time of the year. Still warm, nice, relaxing…

It is Florida at its best.

Tim - sure. Because when it is 89F, it is quite hazy :)

Sounds perfect to me.  When I visited Kathy Streib at the beach last month I couldn't believe we were practically alone at the beach.  It was great!

I was looking for your current blogs. We have deep snow in Maryland and many retirees are heading your way to purchase a home.

I was talking with a friend and wondering if the snowbirds were extending their stays or heading back to the snow and extreme cold. I guess they have headed back. It sounds so peaceful there.
