Just stopped by to help with rubbing it in.
In reality however, there is a high price we have to pay for the few pleasant months we get during the winters. And it can be oppressive!

Florida is my happy place! My wife and I just got back from 4 days in Fort Myers (and we also spent time in Siesta Key and Marco Island) and we were also in Cape Coral for 7 days during the Christmas holidays. It's awesome to see how many Corvettes are out and about down there, and I can't wait to start spending my winters down there and bringing my Corvette with me (in five years time when we retire I will also have traded my C6 for a C7, making it even more fun for me down there!) I'm still not sure exactly where we're going to be in Florida when we retire, but it will definitely be on the Gulf side, anywhere from Sarasota to Marco Island. It really does have ideal weather there during the winter months, you gotta love the endless sunshine and 75-85 degree temps!

Yea, I've tried to get my C7 out at least once per month. That way I can truly say, "Yes, the C7 Corvette is a 4 season car!"

Check out Estero. You don't pay the premium of housing in Naples but still get easy airport access and a quick shot down 75 to either Ft Myers or Naples. Marco is less expensive as well but you're more isolated. The island bridge is an amazing barrier force-field for the Marco residents who no longer leave the island.
