  • Got to scratch off something on my bucket list. I am training in Sarasota for a new job and have always wanted to run on a beach. This was my view during my mile run!

  • Ya,and pythons eating the alligators and the birds in the Everglades. We have fire ants, and large nasty snails, poisonous cane toads that will kill your dogs, and intense traffic around major cities.

Born and raised Floridian right here!! B)

I LOVE Florida and if I ever have to leave, it WILL NOT be anywhere cold. I do not know how to live in the cold. When it gets cold down here in Orlando, (which is around 60-65 degrees to me), i get totally confused on what clothes to wear. My usual cold outfit is tights, a hoodie sweater with a tank top and flip flops. :blink:

What part Of Florida are you from I'm from Jacksonville Florida

And I'm in Leesburg , Lake county

I live in McAlpin, Fl. Near Lake City (North Fla) 45 minutes North of Gainesville (Go Gators). I was raised in Orlando and have lived in Colorado for a short time. too cold for me. It snowed non stop from Sept. til May . I hate cold weather. My husband is originally from Chicago, he tried to get me to move there years ago, I said NOT, now he would never live in Chicago again.

@@Julie904 I'm just west of Jax near Fleming Island near Orange Park South. I'm working on getting a local chapter of Bariatricpal up and running I hope you will consider joining us.

What do you guys think of our gorgeous weather? We had the air off today and tonight we had a nice 3 mile walk along Clearwater beach. Florida is great!!

I'm in Coral Springs. Moved down from NE 9 years ago and would not go back. I hope to be banded in June/July. Surgeon is close by. Love it here

I live in RI, the state that recently received the dubious honor of being the most corrupt state in the country. My property taxes are $7000 per year and I don't live in a luxury home. I'm a bank teller and my hubby is a mechanic, the taxes are killing us! We are seriously considering moving south where the cost of living is much, much lower. Bonus - milder winters and gun-friendly. We're thinking the Carolinas or maybe Georgia.

I will miss all the people I've gotten to know over the last 50 years but I'm friendly - I'll get to know more people wherever we end up. :-)

Around the Daytona Beach area myself. Love being 3.5 miles from the beach. I'd take this heat anytime over the snow any day. And my fella...also a fellow New Englander loves my town so he's planning on moving here too!!! Come on 2015!!! Let's get here already!!! Lol.

My sunrises here in Florida. Eat your heart out!!

And Mother Nature and God have given us the most marvelous weekend in a long time! Dry air and warm temperatures. Almost too cool for the pool for this transplant Floridian.

Hi Ya'll, haven't been to this section in a while. Well, gmanbat, how do you like us now? I have had to do my one hour outside walk, earlier and earlier. But still loving the weather! If you can't stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen!

I am a Florida girl too. I know some people think it's too hot but I'll take it over snow, ice, sleet and rain anytime.

We have had family in town this week and have really enjoyed eating on the patio every night. I wish the temp would stay this way through the summer. It's been beautiful :)

Love North Florida. In the summer heat I have a pool and air conditioning. In the winter, I have fireplaces. I just drove to Kansas and was thrilled to get back South to the Gulf and the Atlantic Ocean. Blessed to live here all my life.
