Runicon, I shagged a few times and ended up with a daughter that names the rats that she feeds to her pet python after me. I don't shag anymore.(but I did like it)

Not picking on you Paul but will use your standard analogy to make a point. How many days did you really shovel snow? How many days was it unbearable to go out in the winter ? Been in both places. Summer in Florida - cabin fever much worse than up north winter. Every day has no relief in Florida summers. I get heat rash picking up the newspaper in the morning in summer. The right answer is get out of Florida in the summer. If that's not in the cards for you be very careful about what your doing. Rent for the month of July or August before committing yourself.

So far, no one has mentioned the problems you will have living in very humid conditions. Your joints will start to ache, and by the first month you will be limping around. In five years, you will not have the use of your hands either. After arriving here from California, I started limping right away, 2 people on my block had achilles tendon issues, and another needed a hip operation. What a coincidence! Could this be the weather? Look it up; humidity causes painful joint problems.

In all reality between June 1 to Oct 1 the weather here is brutal, without a/c the only people who be living in Fl would be the Seminoles-

You can't tolerate heat/humidity-and you moved to Florida?

I've lived in Florida for 64 years mostly in south Florida with a lot more humidity than here and I can assure you that most people in south Fla. are not limping around.

While the 'dead of summer' is definitely brutal here, living in Florida for a number of years now...I still prefer it over the 'dead of winter' where I used to live.

I can remember the hot humid summer nights growing up in Southern Illinois without AC. Our (my brother and I) bedroom was upstairs and a few nights in summer we slept on pallets in the living room with window fans. Oh, the good ol' days! It is cool with AC and you just get things done in early morning or late in the day. We adapt, modify, adjust and acclimate.
