Oh, yeah, when I lived in the Tampa area, you could still see OLD
coastal Florida at it's finest. I also remember when I was a kid, we
camped at a fish camp on the east coast around Ormond Beach, and man
it was in the sticks! They'd go out on the docks at night, shine a
lantern and shrimp would come right up to the docks so that they could
cast net them!
I really regret not getting down to Florida until 1980.
Pine Island was still undeveloped and Cape Coral was just starting
the building boom. Everything down there has gone downhill in my
eyes. Too bad they invented air-conditioning.

Wrong part of Florida in which to live. If I were to move back to Florida,
I'd pick a latitude on either coast north of a line drawn from
Clearwater to Melbourne.
IMO, there are some delightful places to be in Florida in February.
