Very, extremely cool, Deb! In which part of Florida is the condo? What are you going to drive back down there? Do you think you may retire there someday? It's so great that it's a dog friendly place. I hope you have room for all the friends and relatives that will want to visit!
LOL!! We figure our grandkids are getting to be the age to want to visit Disneyworld; so we're an hour from there in Rockledge. Our condo has a slice-of-a-view of the Intracoastal Waterway, and the complex has no dog restrictions, which we found very quickly is NOT the "norm". Our realtor gave us 37 listings to peruse, and probably 32 of those had size restrictions. Ben at 17 lbs was no problem; but Jimmy (a largish "miniature") weighs 35+. We hoped a few of the places that restricted dogs over 30 lbs might be swayed by Jimmy's warm and loving personality....LOL!... but we fell in love with the place we bought the moment we saw the lady walking the handsome GSD :-)
We won't retire there - our roots go too deep in Michigan. But we've decided that "Chasing Cranes" (we noticed that the Sandhill Cranes so prevalent in Michigan are all down there in the winter!) is a good thing to do...LOL!
We're almost back to Michigan - there's snow on the 5er's steps tonight in mid-Kentucky. When we go back to FL, it will be with my Caravan, filled to the roof with furniture, etc. And Jimmy and Ben, of course!
