A snowbird stands over their dog’s poop, waiting for it to freeze, so it will be easier to pick up.

Always smiling.
Never complaining.
Leave big tips.
Hold the door for others.
Stop for people at crosswalks.
AND always say good shot!

Yup

Here’s three signs.

Being pasty white from a lack of sunshine.
Their car is covered with road salt.
They have a big smile that stretches from ear to ear.

Is FROG an acronym?

Exactly! The big green signs with white arrows that show you how to navigate the roundabout must not apply to everyone lol

Last week 2 pedestrians (80s) crossing the roundabout at Odell and BV, were struck by a car. Yesterday driving from VA clinic in mulberry to south of 44 three different roundabouts had people walking across. Renter/ New Snowbird doesn’t know crossing two lanes of traffic is not smart? Or long time resident that’s not so smart? Thoughts?

Then again the amount of grandparents letting under age kids driving golf carts seems to be more than usual, at Christmas break.

They are always smiling. Love our snowbird friends.

That's not just a snowbird thing! FYI, there are plenty of roundabouts up north.

They are always holding a drink on the dance floor.
While we are bundled up from the cold, they wear short, tee shirts and flip flops.
They don't know how to park a golf cart.

They are dressed up with brand new clothes and shoes for every occasion.

Bad roundabout driving, not sure which way to go, bad parking manners (NY/NJ). Clueless!!
