We thought we wanted a Lantana or a Gardenia. After house sitting in a gardenia for 3 weeks we ended up buying a 3 BR CYV on a corner lot. The Gardenia we stayed in had "kissing lanais". I wanted more privacy. And my wife thought the kitchen was too big for her. She would rather get her exercise in the pool. I would like a bigger garage, but hey, it's time to down-size. We closed in April and have only spent a total of 4 weeks in the new house, and are happy with our decision. We are coming down in Sept. for 2 weeks, then again in Nov. for the winter.
