Florida in the Spring

Spring in Florida is a great time. The greenery is turning from dull brown to green again and things start to look alive. At the beaches you see a lot of spring breakers hanging out and having that much needed break from classes and the snow.
The snowbirds are getting ready to go back to where they came and leave the roads and restaurants to the locals. It used to be that the prices were so high in the winter that the locals could not eat out until spring but things have evened out and the prices do not escalate like they used to when the northern income had to last all year round.
Houses are starting to move and have come back into the reasonable range to crazy low. People are starting to buy again and the economy should start to pick up by late summer for early fall.
All is well in the land of sunshine and margaritas.
