Default Snow in the Villages.

I was at the Doggie Doo Run Run about 11:30 this morning and it looked like it was snowing. Or, at least, sleeting.

Picked the wrong morning to wear flip-flops even if I also had socks on. My toes are still quite cold.

I was out at about the same time and I agree, felt like I was in a snow/sleet storm. (I thought it was my new glasses!)

Don't buy further south!!! MSN has predicted house prices to fall 20-30% in many parts of Florida in the next two to three years! Miami and Naples area to be hit real hard.

And would you believe that I pick THIS MORNING,, to go horseback riding for the first time in my life??? I froze my butt off. We rode to Lake Weir (believe it or not, is very pretty but cold) and by the time we got back, I was an icicle..

This is my third winter here and I have never been so cold. I have decided that next year, I'm becoming a 'reverse' snowbird.... I'm going back to Los Angeles for Oct/Nov/Dec/Jan... this is crazy.

Default Trading Winters

I'll trade you TV winter to one from the Northeast.

At least until I am in TV.

Better add Feb and early Mar to that - last year we waited to come to TV until Feb because it was so cold in TV in Jan the year before; last Feb and early Mar were very frosty in TV!

We're leaving for TV in mid-Jan and my wife has complained for the past three months that it will be too cold in TV until Mar.

Same thoughts here BTK. This is crazy. As my years left on this rock dwindle down I don't have that many more years to enjoy comfortable winters. Property values on the Florida home will be my kid's problem.

Yep, I agree with your wife, Chuck. Definitely adding Feb and if my trip in Jan. turns out to be nice and warm, I may just stay there... (not forever, tho- who would I dance with????)
