Winter in Cocoa Beach

[maverick1]

This is what I deal with every winter. Photos taken yesterday.

Just hang in there. Winter will be over in 3 or 4 months.:laugh::laugh:

I'm in NSB work in Edgewater and in shorts today

Great, isn't it!

How are the summers?

 

[maverick1]

Summers are hot and stickey. Got to throw in a few thunder storms. Lived here all my life so I am used to it. A little change of seasons would be nice.

Come up to Michigan for two weeks vacation. You'll get a chance to see ALL the seasons during that time, lol

This thin Florida blood does not do well in the cold weather. I have a hard time going to the grocery store.

I'll grab my snow blower and head down. Wait? I think I robbed the engine from it for another project...

How are the summers?

I'm a yankee transplant, took me about 3 to 4 years to get used to the heat. and I'm a welder that doesn't get to work in the A/C. So like maverk1 Restaurants and stores are cold to me in the summer.

I was stationed at Patrick AFB in 80 & 81. The winters were great but it was too hot & humid in the summer.

My other half has worked at PAFB for 35 years. You are correct with the humidity. Sweat your butt off when it is hot. Plenty of water to cool off in though. The only thing about that there are so many gators they are now in the rivers and on occasion floating in the surf. I pretty much stick to the pool but love walking or bike riding on the beach.

I get cold below 68.

And was raaised in Ohio. Go figure.

All the states have their good and bad. I think the snow birds probably have the right combination figured out.

You got it right. The have the best of both world's.

Unless you live where the snowbirds come.:laugh:
We have folks who we have been seeing for years.
Get a knee this winter, get a hip next..

Overall, once they find out I am from Ohio, I'm OK.

 

[Vette]

We were in central fl last fall, I don't believe I would have any trouble at all hibernating for 3 or 4 months in the Lakeland area.

This town doubles in size during the Winters. No exaggeration. About half the homes are owned by snow birds and vacant half the year.

I can deal with FL humidity. It's the no-seeums that kick my ass. It didn't take me long to figure out what those screens around the pools were for in Cocoa Beach!

I get to go to Daytona for Bike Week in March. Hoping for perfect weather again this year.

 

[maverick1]

Well H.Dave, we have had a little rain, little heat and now those no-seeums have arrived. Working in the garage with the door down sucks.
