I'm sure we all pine for the sights, sounds, and even smells of our "home states". Oh, maybe most of all I missed HONEYBELLS, they seldom are available outside Florida unless you order from a specialty grove, never saw a single one in a regular super market in Champaign, IL (University of Illinois) or anywhere outside Florida ! I've visited Alaska a few times, I can even understand how you could miss it that far north if that was where you a person grew up. I'm sure mountain state people would miss that if they moved to Florida... Arizona might be a better choice for their retirement; mountains AND warmth, LOL !

ARIZONA is NOT a better choice at all.....over building crowded too extreme heat and this winter we got snow! LOTS of it incluiding Scottsdale !!!! Forget it here rents are way too high and homes are way overpriced.........I am planning to come to TV and take advantage of high home prices......I bought in linden
