As you know not one state offers everything you dream of.  The Sunshine State has lots to offer and as they say “life’s a beach”!  There are many pros and cons of living in South Florida.

South Florida is warm and sunny the majority of the time.  With that comes living in flip-flops and shorts.  However, in order to respectably wear flip-flops, one MUST commit to impeccable foot maintenance.  It is one of the menaces of living in the sunshine state! No one wants to be exposed to unattractive feet, so unless you have time for a pedicure each week or every other week please wear closed shoes.

Florida is the “Golf Capital of the World”.  Prepare to see fairway after fairway; South Florida has more golf courses than beaches. Your golf game better be respectable, your clubs superior and your outfit should be unrivaled.   

Sports umbrellas are necessary.  The sun is wonderful and there is a time and a place to enjoy the rays. One must understand why everyone brings an umbrella with him or her; it is not for generally for the rain! Residents use them as a kind of sports canopy to shield them from the beautiful blue skies and sunshine, although there are occasional rain showers.

It does get cold occasionally.   Cold is a relative term.  While it did not get to freezing cold temperatures here this winter, we still had some nights when it dipped into the 30’s!   South Florida also had a handful of days that hovered in the low 50’s.  Do you have any idea how hard it is to wear socks with flip-flops?
