Like you, I grew up in Florida. From age 12, my family have lived here. From Lakeland, Miami, Ormond Beach, Daytona Beach, Chipley, Cottondale, Orlando-

To name a few. I adore Florida and in the 12 yrs I spent in the US Navy- I Always requested to be stationed here.

Now to respond about Wildwood. I remember so many times on my way to Lake City to see Aunt Mary- we would get off the Turnpike and get on I-75. That was the ONLY reason coming to Wildwood.

I live here now (since 1999) and I have not seen Wildwood change much. In fact, truth be told, it is not moving forward. Yes, a few
new restaurants here and there BUT-

Hubby and I have always had ideas for Wildwood for years. One is to bring the Amtrak Auto-Train to Wildwood. Can you believe how many Village residents would use it?? Now it's in Sanford, I believe.
don't know, but let's meet soon, like next week, lunch and I'll buy and you give me a tour?. so happy to hear from you.
