[QUOTE=NotGolfer;884639]The only cold feet we may have had were from the frigid temps of the Midwest along with it's snow and ice!!



There's also moving to FL, and the difference in being in TV. Two very different concepts. IMHO

I think some people make too much of the summer heat. You can always do something stenuous in the early AM, or later in the evening. What's the difference if you have to stay in A/C for a while, and staying in one's home in the winter, for several months. I never heard someone up north say in the winter, "I will stay outside all day, so I can freeze my butt off".

If you can carry two homes, then you might to consider being in TV for the winter, and your home up north, for the summer. Another possibility, is to buy a much saller home in NH, and A smaller type home in TV, assuming you can still carry two homes.

I think once you are here, you will not want to go back!!!

Just my two cents worth and with inflation, it's worth nothing today.
