But only for 3 months!
Decided to become a snowbird and miss all the lovely snow and ice of the Great White North.
Any Northerner can attest to the brutal and oh so long winter last year. Did not want to face any more shovelling this winter ..........
Needless to say this blog has been very quiet while I was busy getting ready for the big move..but I missed everyone.....
Back to my story ; we found a place to rent on VRBO web site in Weeki Wachee Florida.
Basically sight unseen.. yes, the owner Phil sent lots of photos but it was with some trepidation that we drove up to the place wondering what we had gotten ourselves into......
First the temperature on the first day 75 ! Can you say heaven?.
Second the place is everything and more that the photos showed.
Dock overlooking the intracoastal waterway........
Where DH will be spending time as the song says " Sitting on the dock of the bay,Watching the tide roll away,
I'm just sitting on the dock of the bay, Wasting time"
View from great room out onto deck and then the waterway.
The garden is lovely , will post more about that later...still settling in...
Will be getting around to every one's blog and catching up on the news.......
Belated Happy New Year!
PS brought the cold with us only high of 50 today......... LOL.

Congratulations to you! I am sure you will love it. Real estate is so low in Florida, you may be able to grab something at a great price. Happy New Year, I wish I was a snowbird. xo
It looks good! Enjoy! It was minus 16 here yesterday,lol.
Lucky you. The place looks wonderful. Heck if its only 50 that's a lot warmer that where you came from. Enjoy!!!
You'll need to switch up the background for some sun. Oh how I wish it were summer already. We were dumped on yesterday....blech.
I'm glad to hear you are in sunnier climes now. :) And hey, we're neighbors now! Hope you enjoy your stay.
Still much colder up here; enjoy your time in the gardens. The heat is just around the corner for you.Keep us posted.

Oh, You! I'm thinking, however, that it's not that much warmer there than it is here these days!! ha. However, I'm sure winter will arrive here before long. :-) Have a wonderful time!
You must feel like in heaven :-)
Enjoy... And have a appy new year
Hi Rosemary,
You forgot to take me with you! I am still here in the Northest. They are predicting freezing rain today. Enjoy your time in the sunny warm weather.
I'm so excited for you. What a beautiful place to spend some good quality time. Enjoy your warmth. That is the exact reason we moved to Arizona.
It was so nice to hear from you! How is sunny Florida treating you? xo
Hi Rosemary, 50 degrees? Cry me a river! LOL It is sunny, but freezing cold here today.
Belated Happy New Year! Your new digs look great. Love the balcony porch and looks like you have a great covered-in porch for evenings, when the mosquitoes are buzzing. I look forward to living vicariously and being treated with three months of sunny looking pictures. Can't wait to see the garden!
