Hi Beth... I moved to Florida 17 years ago after growing up in Massachusetts & a few years in Washington State. It is THE BEST!! You need to come back and drive around and explore. So many different aspects to it; all much better than Disney. Because it's mostly water you need to see it by boat(s) too. Our beaches are glorious. Flying over in a plane or helipcopter or hot air balloon is in order too! It feels good being outside daily. We are the Sunshine State 😎so plenty of vitamin D & plenty of natural vitamin C from all our citrus.🍊 Nope. I don't work for the tourism board. I just LOVE it!

I actually have family there spread out between Orlando & St Cloud & my sister-in-law's Mom has invited me several times to come down to Boca Raton to spend a few days with her. I've been living with & taking care of my elderly Dad for 7 years until he passed last July. Maybe it's time for me to plan a small trip..thank you, you have cheered me up. I'm worried abt the impending storm on it's way to us. They say it's gonna be bad, I live alone & worry abt the power going out and I can't find the batteries...
