Why I live in Florida

Tonight is the first lesson is the second session of swim lessons for Gigi. After this session concluded, I will sign her up for two more sessions and we will conclude lessonsin mid-November. I know I get pretty tired of the hot days of Florida during the summer months, but somehow it all feels OK when you realize you can comfortably swim in an outdoor pool until almost Thanksgiving, usually later. If the pool were heated, we could go even longer.
In a couple of weeks we will see the beginning of the most luxurious weather on earth, in my opinion. June through mid-September are difficult months in Florida, but the rest of the year is pure bliss. I’ll wear sandals all winter and we will have our windows open, except for the few short weeks we get wintry weather in the area.
There is a reason people move to Florida! Yeah, you give up the mountains and I miss them dearly. But, I can visit up north and vacation in the mountains. I can still go on ski trips and time thing so we can play in the snow at my dad’s. But when it comes to being able to enjoy my own yard and the local attractions, I love that Florida allows me year-round access to blooming flowers, singing birds, and warm sun.
