Will it be hard to get a tee time?

We are hoping to be full time Villagers, but concerned about the weather. We live in Ca. now and everyone is telling us how hot and humid it is there. I figure if there are so many happy people there it must not be that bad.

Granted it is hot & humid in the summer, but I love it that way. Whenever I fly out west, ie: Ca, Az, Tx, Co, etc. as much as I have enjoyed visiting those places I cannot wait to get back to warmth & humidity. My skin just doesn't like the dryness of the air & I feel like a prune. I must use bottles & bottles of moisturizers when I am in the West. I really think that people's skin ages faster in dry air. But here in Fl you must be careful of the sun. Wear a hat & sunscreen. You can get around in a golf cart...but often more convenient in a car. I find myself using the car most of the time due to the time it takes to get from one activity to another. Maybe I'm still stuck on pre-retirement mindset.
