Welcome to you. Every area has it's woes. WE have the countries most lightning strikes in central Florida. We have fire ants that really hurt and sting, we have sinkholes (but very seldom...You might hear of one about once a year and may never hear unless there is a significant one) We have a LOT of people who live here with wrinkles and wisdom and a sense of humor.

We have had many deaths due to golf cart accidents in the past dozen years and many deaths due to age as well. We do NOT have the often reported urban legend of sexually transmitted disease that is off the charts. People DO have sex here and sometimes they aren't married.

There are very few unplanned pregnancies here. In fact I haven't ever heard of a single case.

Dogs are unfairly targeted by some as naughty when it is the dog's owner who will allow some of them to poop in other people's yards. You need to have a plastic bag from the Daily Sun obviously hanging out of your pocket when walking your dog if you want folks to smile at both of you.

Welcome home.
