I think living in Florida is great at my age, but there are times I reminisce after 7 years down here.
We travel back, but it just isn't the same.

For me it has to be the 4 seasons, not the snow and cold, but the change in weather, the fall colors that never seem to last long enough.
The farm fields in summer watching the crops progress from month to month, or the smell of freshly cut hay and miles of corn fields.
Grandchildren, good butchers, (not impressed with the new butcher at Sawgrass) convenient shopping and quality medical care. Will never make this my permanent home and give up my doctors up north.
