Where to go?
We find ourselves in the position to be able to spend the winter months some place warmer. We have been looking at Texas, Florida, etc. Kids are in NC and Arizona but don't really want to be in either...

Some people swear by Florida and some swear by Texas. I read all the forum posts on both for a year and then decided on Florida.
Florida is such a small state that no matter where you park you can go and see something nice on a day trip. Don't like the CG you are in? Within a day you can drive to another area of Florida. State is so narrow you can just about spend one day on the Gulf Side and then drive to the East coast to enjoy the ocean there the next!
CG's might be higher priced in Florida but IMHO there is WAAY more to do and drive to than where the Texas snowbirds park. I really never hear them talk much about driving to see attractions or site see. I'm sure some do but just saying from what I see on the forum. That and the Texas Snowbirds speak of the wind and dust quite a bit. THAT was what my deal breaker was.
