Full house in Mesa AZ

I don't think I would want to "Winter" there, to big and packed!

We are booked at Sun Life. Was already pretty full in April when we made our reservations.
With all the cold weather up north many more are heading south. Plus RGV weather has not been good the last couple of years.

By the looks of the El Nino forecast, the weather may not be good anywhere in the south this year and Florida looks to be hit the worst with wet weather ....

A little more wet would be OK in AZ. As long as it is warm.

Rumor has it that rates will be dropping in the RGV by 33% because of the reduction due to snowbirds going to AZ and FL.

Also rumors are that we are not in the last stages of climate change and the jet stream will continue to sift to the east even more.

California will get much needed relief while AZ will suffer devastating dryness and water rations. FL is suppose to be on the route of the Pineapple express coming from South America when it continue shifting easterly.

Of course that's just rumors. Look at Buffalo and it's new found snowfall. Not like they never had that before and not like it will continue shifting easterly as thing continue to warm. I'm sure if climate change is for real, it has stopped moving our weather pattern by now. :B

Isn't it great that there are options for everyone.

We are at Val Vista for the winter. Lots of things to do in the park, love having both indoor and outdoor heated pools (4) available all over the park. Love being near great shopping, restaurants, arts centers (already been to our first concert), as well as good medical care so we can get our pokes/prods/pinches while we are here.

Other people have different ideas on how they like to spend the winter and there are places for them.

I get a kick out of this climate change thing. The climate has changed through out history like this, one needs to only read and search. We had a "little" ice age around the time of the civil war, people were able to walk on the ice in NYC harbour. For the first time, people ice skated the full lenght of NY finger lake at Watkins Glen. It Snowed in the month of July. We had a "mini" famine, crops killed. So, the weather will be what it wants to be. Florida may be colder or wetter this year, California has a severe drought, it is a desert, man has messed around out there, blocked rivers, drilling deeper and deeper for water, and they are crying climate change.
As a kid growing up in the North, we had lots of snow every year, then, not so much, Climate change! Then we started getting snow like we use to, Climate change! Why does people jump on the band wagon when someone in Washington cries "Climate change"?

I am still waiting for climate change in Minnesota, we have a couple more years before retirement. If you like reliable weather, you may want to come to Minnesota. An RV won't cut it in the winter though.
Just my humble opinion, Brian

Maybe some people need to see if the local community college has an earth science class or to they could take so they could lean some sciences

Retiredblade you a absolutely correct. Others need to do their research, study their history and not believe what some are trying to sell to them.
