Can't take it anymore.

After my 21st summer here in the "sunshine state," I've realized I cannot take another one. Florida knows two seasons: Hot and Hotter. Unfortunately, Hotter lasts a good 5-6 months, with NO break. You can bank on 90+ degrees with insane humidity from early May to sometimes mid or late October. No cold fronts, no breezes, just a lot of rain and excrutiating heat. I can't go through it again. Not to mention the population in Orlando is growing faster than the actual area--we don't have enough roads or public transportation to accommodate it. Nothing to do in the area, unless you want to throw down 60+ bucks a person for one day at a theme park. Not to mention the amount of tourists and bad drivers there are around here. You better believe I'll be out of here by next June, for sure. I'd like to live somewhere with real seasons and accessible roads or public transportation!
