I want my own dock, other factors are less important

Basically you need to be on a canal in order to have a dock with
adequate storm protection. There are lots of possibilities in south
west Florida: Punta Gorda Isles, Cape Coral and Ft Myers spring
immediately to mind.

Pretty reasonable property.

Very reasonable by California standards, and also compared to the
northeast.


My 1973 2450’ house is about $1.3 million now. A local 5000’ 1900 built
house on 2nd street just sold for $3.3 million. But is the one in the
early Rebecca of Sunny brook Farm movie.

That is another incentive to move away. You could buy a castle down
here for 3 million.


I don’t do well in high humidity.

How do you feel about snow ?


Nice to drive to for an afternoon. Maybe a weekend. We see snow here.
Fact is we looked at snow this morning, on top of Mr. Diablo. Which is
about 4000’ and we are at 420’ elevation.

Snow on city streets results in videos to be taken that rival a Three
Stooges movie.



I have lived in snow. Spent a year in Dayton, OH for schooling. Arrived
through an 11� blizzard in January and left the day after the first
snowfall of the next winter. Highest point in Ohio is only 1504’. Does
not make for great downhill skiing. I also lived in Denver for 3 months of
winter.

I got snowed on in October in Endicott. It was just my welcome to New
York and a reason why I wanted that assignment cut short. I went home
for Christmas and didn't go back.
I like skiing but I want to ski and then come home.


That is a nice thing about here. Mountain skiing is only 2.5 hours away.
My parents are from Scott’s Bluff area of Nebraska. Mom grew up on a farm
a mile from the Wyoming border near Henry, NE and tells about -40 degrees.
Glad they moved here before I was born.
