I'm not a fan of Florida. I spent time at Homestead and Tyndall AFBs. Nice to visit, but I wouldn't want to live at either.
One summer, we were doing an air to air refuelling jaunt around North America. We landed in Florida in July. Muggy, shitty. Head for the a/c! And hurricanes.
I guess every place has its downsides, but having travelled around down there, I'm not interested. I like California better, but they got the San Andreas fault. I got woke up at 2AM because the place I was staying in started shaking. A relatively calm 5.7 shake up. We were visiting Moffat NAS, now closed.
