Travel: The Florida Lifestyle

After watching and reading the daily weather news, thought it was time to pay hommage to the Florida Lifestyle!
Usually by mid January, many 'snowbirds' have taken flight and arrived to the warm sunny shores of South Florida escaping the cold weather.  But "Old Man Winter" had other plans.  Snowstorm after snowstorm paired with single digit temperatures and accompanied by biting winds made travelling difficult - if one could even get out!   However, that all changed this week!
Lately we have taken to enjoying a walk after lunch along the beach and pier at the the Jupiter Inlet.  Noticing that the roads seemed a bit busier I realized that we were the only car with a Florida license plate/tag!  Ohio, New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Vermont, Massachusetts, Illinois and more were sharing the roadway with us - "they" got out!  Seizing a moment between snow and ice, they arrived to the sunny sands of South Florida.  The only shovels around are held by children in the sand and the only ice is that in our beverages.  Aahhhh....
This week is especially busy, children are off from school for winter break and they are enjoying a stay with grandma and grandpa in Florida.  The happy sound of children's voices as they splash about the shoreline, the relaxing poses of parents in sun loungers make me so grateful to be living here.
The Jupiter area is bustling and growing with a very large complex (hotel, retail, office, residental, recreation) being constructed on the Intracoastal Waterway at Indiantown Road.  A new Fresh Market is nearing completion and the overall existing businesses are doing well including - real estate!
The Florida Lifestyle is anything you want it to be: laid back, busy, creative, adventurous.  Here is a great link: http://www.palmbeachfl.com  Golf, tennis, boating, fishing, spas, theatre, shopping, dining, hotels, equestrian, etc...the options are endless!
