Florida

This week I am in Florida, the Palm Beach area. I was loving the crisp weather in Missouri. I had windows open and slept with the down comforter. It was wonderful!!

I arrived in Florida on Monday afternoon to upper 80 degree weather and that has been maintained since my arrival. This afternoon we had some pretty heavy rain, but the temperature remained upper 80's. I happen to LIKE cool weather, which is probably why I will not be retiring to Florida any time soon.

I am amazed at the terrain of this portion of Florida. From city to city is only a few miles. I am staying in Boca Raton. The facilities I visited on Tuesday and Wednesday are less that five minutes away, but are in Delray Beach,Florida. Between there and West Palm are several more Florida 'cities'...... Lantana, Boynton Beach, etc. I am scheduled to be in Juno Beach tomorrow. That will be about a one hour drive.

All I have visited are wonderful communities for OLD people. Discovering these communities has made me re-evaluate what my expectations are for my 'golden' years. These 'retirement communities' are the preferred way to make the most of the next phase of my life. Just need to stay on task to save and avoid debt so I will have the resources to choose where I will live.
