Any fellow Yankees planning to do any ice fishing over the holidays?
If so, where, and what do you expect to catch, aside from pneumonia?

No. One of my goals in moving to Florida was to never again be
outside in freezing weather. So far, so good.


I am having a difficult time adjusting to this weather. The past four
winters in Florida have spoiled me, that's for sure. Damn!, it's cold
outside. Driveways are black ice - gotta schuffle along, never lifting a
foot off the ground to avoid falling on your ass.

I forgot...was there a reason you moved back to the land of ice, snow, and
reindeer? Tire of Florida?


Loved south Florida winters, but Mrs.E's parents are getting up there in
age, my mother is getting up there as well and they all require more help.
That, plus grandkids growing up too fast and Mrs. E's two 1000 lb pets all
added up to shorter and shorter periods in Florida to the point where it
just doesn't make sense to pay the taxes and maintenance costs for a house
down there. Condos are just not for me.

I may go back to plan A, and bring the Navigator back down there next fall
and spend a week or two on it a few times during the ice age months up here.
