Northern FL is far less affected than southern FL, too.

More imagining on your part. Your incorrect conjuring never ends.


So tell us about your extensive travel on the Florida pan handle
beaches.
If they want to keep the beaches closed in Broward and Dade, I can
understand it but up on the north gulf coast? Why? For that matter it
really doesn't even make that much sense here. Most of the beaches are
deserted at this time of year and social distancing is not a problem.


D'uh. Your post stated "Particularly in the pan handle but I doubt Harry
has ever actually been there."

Incorrect conjuring. I never said I traveled in the Panhandle
"extensively." I have been there at least a dozen times, though not for
many years. That qualifies for "actually been there," and therefore
makes your conjuring incorrect, as usual.

Harry thinks going to the beach is taking the train out to Fire
Island. I doubt he has ever seen a beach without people laying on
overlapping blankets.

Where do you get these absurd ideas? I've never been to Fire Island or
Coney Island, and I've rarely even been out to Long Island. We had
beautiful, uncrowded beaches where we summered in the New Haven area.

These beaches:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TqpcysyeJ1I



The pictures in the first 2 would be more convincing if there were
leaves on the trees (what was it about 30 degrees?) and the 4th video
is a private beach for about a dozen houses in Milford.

The 3d video seems to be showing a 4k race that closed off all the on
street parking (assuming they even let you park there) and blocked off
the street so that is not going to be an easy beach to get to. Maybe
those rich ****s could helicopter over the road.

I would be more convinced if I saw a public beach in the summer and
not one in a residential neighborhood or in the winter.

It really doesn't matter tho. If you are contending that beaches make
it impossible to social distance you are arguing the wrong point to
talk about empty ones.

I've been up and down the Connecticut shore more times than I can
count and for my money the only beach worth mentioning is the one at
Hammonhasset.

However like all Long Island Sound beaches it lacks ocean surf. For
that you need to go to the south shore of Long Island or eastward to
Rhode Island and Massachussets.

I am not sure driving down I 10 on your way somewhere really counts.
We were talking about the beach.

I have changed planes at MSP more times than I care to think about but
I wouldn't say I have really been to Minnesota.

I was surprised at how cheap beach front houses are in Milford. What
is the problem there? When I looked at the top hit on google for Villa
Rosa, the private beach Harry linked and it was Zillow for a 2888
sq/ft house right on the beach for $373k.
https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/6...38411678_zpid/

That lot would be $500k here without a house. Tear downs on the Estero
river sell for more than that. Six years ago a guy paid $549k for one
and tore the house down.

I am still wondering what is wrong with that place that makes real
estate so cheap. 3000 sq/ft houses on a private beach only draw
350-400k. I would think within commuting distance of the business
capital of the world would drive prices up into 7 figures.

Actually they are outside the easy commuting distance to NYC, much
closer to New Haven, CT. I thnk virtually all of those places started
out as summer cottages and may be not be finished as well as you'd
like. It's also possible that they are uninsurable since they have
little elevation or setback. Boating is problematic also since the
shore there is so exposed.

Yeah, 3000 sq/ft "cottages". It reminds me of some of the "cabins" we
rented in the mountains.
Doesn't the train drop you right in Penn Plaza? My Buddy's brother was
a conductor on that train until he retired. He used to get drunk and
call out every stop from New Haven to NYC or until someone said, "this
is our stop so stop" ;-)
I looked at a couple on Zillow and it looks like they have been fairly
well upgraded but they are still old houses. I guess the preFIRM thing
may be an issue but there are plenty of preFIRM houses, more like 1800
sq/ft in on the water (canal) that are getting a half mil around here
and if you are talking beach front on the gulf, $2.5 Mil won't even
get you a teardown on Bonita Beach.
I just looked at a bare lot with the same 50' of beach ( 27866 Hickory
Blvd) that they want $2,875,000 for.

Obviously beach front and boat don't go together. At least until you
get up into the tens of megabucks for a compound that spans beach to
bay.

It really just surprised me. I thought Connecticut was full of rich
people. If you can buy a house, even a teardown, on a private road
with a private beach for $350k, maybe not so much.
