A Piece of Paradise

My husband and I moved from New Hampshire to Cape Coral in May 2009. We love it here. The housing prices have dropped dramatically, so we got a great deal on a 3 bed, 2 bath house with a pool and a lanai. We live in a nice, quiet neighborhood which is near shopping and restaurants. Crime is not a problem here. My husband retired in January 2009 so we needed to think about our expenses. The beaches of Ft. Myers, Sanibel and Captiva are nearby and are beautiful and not crowded and the water is warm and swimable. We could never go swimming in the ocean water in New Hampshire. Too cold! The heat takes some getting used to, but we have central air. It is nice this time of year in November. The landscape is not as pretty as New Hampshire, but the palm trees are nice and we have an orange tree and grapefruit tree in our yard.
