68 degree temperature versus 48 degree temperature - what to do?
 
We are in the Keys.much much warmer here. Rethinking this fall and will probably do TV nov and Dec..then to the tropics Islamorada for 3 months. My favorite things to do in TV are golf and water exercise classes. So in Nov/Dec the courses are NOT crowded, and although classes at Mulberry usually do not take place below 60, most days then are still good.

I think Greg was just sharing some experiences, thoughts, opinions,etc., as a lot of posters do on this site.

Greg, I have often thought, aside from the crowds and traffic, the Keys would be a good choice over Central Florida during the winter months. It sounds like you have a good formula that works for you.

He misses The Villages.. It's the kool aid kicking in.

I think he was talking about the temperature. Hope so. I love to kick fanny about age bias.

I'm guessing there is no website called "Talk of the Keys".

When there's a choice, 68 degrees is better than 48. There, I answered the question.

best of both worlds I'd say. We found a nice place called The Palms of Islamorada with a pool and ocean view for $2200/mo. But not much for golfing here. So we'll be in TV for Nov/Dec....all is good

WOW - that's a heck of a deal for high season. Accomodations nice?

Islamorada, best fishing ever !

Greg Nelson 01-21-2015 07:16 PM

It is small 450sq/ft. But on ground floor and pool/hot tub/sauna work out areas for both men and women. Covered parking and right on the Atlantic ocean. Water aerobics daily at 10AM. SCUBA/kayaks next door. Built in the late 70's but well kept up. Mostly seniors. It is tropical here. So 2 months at TV and three there. Currently we are not in a position to buy anywhere

Sounds delightful - enjoy.

My wife made all the plans for renting a big house right on the Atlantic Ocean in the keys for 1 month. My family enjoyed the stay I hated the keys and when your staying for a month you can go from one end to the other many times. I'll spare the reader my reason:mad:

Greg Nelson 01-22-2015 04:07 PM

to each their own. We are water people like to snorkel and SCUBA. Our place here in Key Largo has a fishing canal and many manatees. Next month we go to Parrish Fl for 2 months. But we've reserved our 'special place' in Quail Run for next Nov/DEC.
