Hi Peter,
My husband was in the navy for almost 30 years before we were married and he spent a lot of time on the gulf coast and loved it. I have never lived anywhere but in the town I am in now. In fact, we bought the house my grandparents built when my mom was 7 years old. She is now 83. We will be selling in the next few years as we want to downsize. No need for 12 rooms for two people and two dogs. Carol

carol, twelve rooms, WOW. I TOLD MY HUSBAND I USED TO CLEAN 9 ROOMS (IN HINGAM) IN ONE DAY, NOW IT TAKES ME 9 DAYS TO CLEAN ONE ROOM!!!!!!!!!! IF YOU KNOW ANYONE THAT IS INTERESTED IN A FLORIDA RENTAL WE HAVE A LOVELY HOUSE. WE DO NOT ALLOW PETS THOUGH . TERRIBLE ALLERGIES! PETERPARLEY
