we live in VT and go to Alabama (Gulf Coast) for 4-5 months every winter. When we built our house in VT, we did not make it so we could stay the winter (insulation but no central heat). We love it down here, great circle of friends, we are more social here than back home.
We have been doing this for over 20 years. We drain our house in winter and we get such a good deal on rent here in the south, it is cheaper to go south than to stay home and heat the house. In AL, winter months are "off season".
