South Florida is for the birds... snowbirds that is!

T.S. Eliot wrote that April is the cruelest month ... but T.S. Eliot forgot what it was like to live in New England during a late March snowstorm.  March 21st is the official first day of spring, but those of you up north might never know it.

There really is no reason to spend another winter shivering in the sub-zero weather, scraping snow off your windshield, and dealing with all the wind chills and potholes, Next winter you can laugh at the threatening weather from your own sunny Abacoa® home in Jupiter, Florida.

Here you can get reacquainted with your old friend - THE SUN.  Or you can enjoy all the green areas, lakes, parks and pristine beaches, take advantage of the glorious shopping on Worth Avenue, or simply revel in the laid-back living and Mediterranean-style architecture that makes Jupiter one of the very best places to live and love life.

And what a perfect time to buy!  The Wall Street Journal just cited the Palm Beach area - including "over the moat" in Jupiter - as one of the 10 best places for a second home. Median prices have plunged 11 percent from their peak. It doesn't get better than this!

Why not give yourself a break during the long hard winters?  When Bob Marley wrote about three little birds pitched by his doorstep, he sure wasn't shivering through a Nor'easter in Boston or a blustery blizzard in Chicago.  Jupiter and Palm Beach Gardens are the kind of places where "everything's gonna be all right" ... especially with home prices near their all-time low.

Maybe you'll fly north for the summer too. After all, it has a lot to offer. Just remember that when fall turns to winter, there's a better way of life. The little birds fly south to their second homes. Why shouldn't you?
