    OK, we pulled the trigger. We'll be in Orange Beach Alabama for the month of February. Beachfront condo, looks nice. I know it is not as warm there as further south, but it also won't be 20F and the prices were much more reasonable. High 60's, low 70's. Will likely make a jaunt over to New Orleans, 3 hours away.

    Then we will be in the Florida Keys for a week or two with my family.

        Nice. I assume the plan is to drive?

            Excellent plan! Good to get out of the cold for a while.

                  Rad! My folks did that for years, always somewhere different. Be nice to see the place once you're there!

                  Please love yourself.

                    That is my idea - I have no interst in going the same place each year. I'd like to do Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, South Carolina's low country...

                      I like that idea. Plus, if you find a place you really really like, you always can return

                            Well, with Zeta coming directly to Orange Beach maybe I should have waited a while to pull that trigger. It's a Cat 1 which should not be all that bad. In any event it should be fixed up by February. I hope.
