  4. Yea, Larisa, we like Florida.

    We’re lifelong bike riders and swimmers, and here we can go out at 6:30 and be home by 8…great way to start the day.

    Best thing is that nobody else swims that early in the morning, so the village pool is just for the 2 of us.

    And we like Florida because we don’t have to shovel snow in January, as we used to do in New York every winter. We can go swimming in January.

    How nice for you to have a house in a village…so different from city life.
