I love to watch weather across the nation and the world and after seeing places hit 40 below wind chills and other places getting hit with a tornado, followed by an ice storm, I feel pretty good at getting up early in the morning and seeing 60°. You also can't beat the Flora and the fauna. Sometimes I am fortunate enough to hear a flock of parrots passing through and I can always tell what it is like up north because the pelicans are here. I love our palm trees and the tambouias are now in full bloom and are beautiful. I get to see flowers year round and most of the trees don't lose their leaves and there are always some bushes that are blooming. I get to hear birds every morning and throughout the day.
I don't like cold weather and it affects me both physically and emotionally. I don't even like it when we get a few days of it. I don't like to be trapped inside with all the beauty around me. Perfect? Absolutely not, but it works for me.
I have wondered about other places like New Orleans, maybe.
