Lived most of my life in Wisconsin and Minnesota. Lived in Florida for 4 years.

I'd definitely take the FL summers over upper Midwest winters! But I LOVE the beach in May - Sept. The water is a like bathwater warm. LOVE IT!

I can't stand driving in snow anymore. Icy roads that can easily put you in the ditch. At my age it's dangerous. Walking on icy parking lots just to get into the grocery store. Always having that feeling of never being warm Sept - June. Snow starts in late September and can snow until May. Deep freeze for 6 months. No thanks!
