I have a lot of family members that go down south to escape the cold weather during the winter.
They have houses in small condos near the ocean and bays.
I’m glad that they can go down there and escape the winter. Especially for my grandparents because they are much older and they can’t afford shoveling the driveway, dealing with the cold weather and driving in it. My aunt is also down there and her husband. They assist my grandparents whenever they need help. My aunt is down there all year round and never wants to come back up north. I recently just purchased a plane ticket to go down there during the winter. It’s great because I’ll be able to see everyone. There is mainly pretty much a party every night because all the family members get together for dinner and drinks. Coming from a big family is a blessing, however when parties are thrown in a small condo they can get very warm and sticky. Not to mention the heat outside doesn’t help at all. The transition from coming from the northeast and down into the south is sometimes hard for me. I cannot stay out in the Sun for more than 2 hours or I will get a serious sunburn. Whereas my family members who live down there all year round are used to it. When I visit my aunt knows to turn up the temperature on thermostat very low for me so the AC will continuously kick on.
