To each his own. Last winter in Florida just wasn't right for me, I guess I just need the cold cycle as much as hot. Although the tangerines we had on the tree last year were awesome.

Temps here today are much higher than predicted. Already we are at 17 deg F and looks like it could make it into the 20s. Kinda nice standing out on the back porch in tee shirt, jeans and slippers puffing on my pipe and basking in the warm glow of a solstice sun. I can take it for about 15 to 20 minutes at a time. Then back inside to my couch in front of the fireplace snuggling with my puppy and a warm cup of coffee laced with butterscotch Schnapps.
