Not A snow Bird?

deniseO30 · #1 (**permalink**) 07-31-2011

I ever get a coastal boat able to take me to Maine in the spring/summer and Fla in the winter. Chasing the cold or cool weather is my idea of cruising life. Just wondering.. can I be alone in such a pursuit?

Well, I used to chase the warm weather. Anything below 15 C is too cold for me!.
However, enjoy, keep us posted.

Though not a "snowbird", we are of a different feather, but flying with the same flock. I grew up in Fort Lauderdale and have almost always lived in Florida. We are "hurricane birds" and escape to the Chesapeake or Maine for the summer. 'sure you're not alone,- there are twenty snowbirds for every one hurricane bird. Take care and joy, Aythya crew

Not a snowbird yet but have been thinking about it alot since this past winter with all the snow. Who knows? "Fairie tales, may come true, it can happen to you", hopefully me too.

I'm not a big fan of unnecessary sweating. *grin* Accordingly I prefer the Abacos in winter to the Exumas. The latter is simply too warm during the day time. The former is lovely all day; a light blanket at night is just fine and it is a pleasure to not worry about heat from cooking dinner.

We haven't managed to get far enough North to avoid heat in summer.

I am afraid to answer this question, it looks like a trick question in Monday morning.

Ooops, it is 12:43 pm, never mind in Roseanne Roseannadanna's voice.

I'm not going to do well in hell. I hate hot weather.

Just "snow" at this point but will eventually add the "bird" part!

Sounds like a great plan to me. 84.7" of snow in one season will do that to a person.....

Me too, you can't dress for the hot weather. Even Maine is too hot, lets go to Nova Scotia and PEI or get chilled on the iceberg & sipping pina colada.
