Thanks guys,
I have been doing a little homework on the Internet. I must say, I am shocked at the prices!!!

Having lived in Florida at two different times and left in 1992 when the real estate was incredibly depressed, it is tough for me to look at some of the prices and like what I see.

Tampa,
I got a pretty good feel for some of those so called "Water Front" properties when I was living in Florida. Gulf access meant, you can get there eventually. Driving past 500 homes at NO WAKE SPEED could take hours to get to open water. I was hoping for something a little more accessible and seems to do so now would require big bucks. May have to rethink that water front thing again.
Driving the Cobra where I live now is about as good as it gets. No afternoon showers, not much heat, no humidity. When I was riding my bike in Florida I found out rather quickly, Florida is NOT the best place for converyibles and bikes.

CobraDan,
I am beginning to realize that enough to kick myself. Lots that were offered at $30,000 few years back are now $150,000 and up.There was a time in the early 90's Cape Coral had serious problems. Parts of it looked like a ghost town. Unfortunately I won't be doing the DVSF this year.

Tony,
Last time it was 1989 to 1992.

SJ,
Thanks. No condos yet. Maybe when I grow up a little more.
If I decide Waterfront is too rich for my blood, I am thinking Sebring area. Ocala is nice tooo, if you like horses. I like horses but don't love them enough to have them.

TC,
I understand Marco is nice in a RV.
