Florida winters are a tranquil escape for this Northeast transplant... As a long-time resident who migrated from the Northeast many decades ago, Florida's winter months have become an integral part of my life, offering a stark contrast to the chilly memories of my northern roots.  Winters here are different of course.  We don't have that beautiful white snow, but we have a unique beauty during our winters that I have grown to love. I don't miss the bone-chilling winds and layers of winter clothing.  Our Winter Sun, which is much less intense than the scorching summer, is still beautiful and casts a warm glow on everything. I look forward to the puffy cloud filled skies and the sun peaking out. One of the remarkable features of a Florida winter is we still enjoy blooming flowers.  While ... 02/06/2024

Hospitality... it is so difficultYou are walking into this condo-hotel. Unless you are an owner here, you would not even know that this is a condo-hotel, where each unit is individually owned. You would think this is a hotel.So, you are walking into this particular hotel. The Front Desk clerk is sitting behind the Front Desk, and all you see is his/her head. S/he does not turn it, s/he does not greet you. So, you come to the counter and say “How are you?” Then and only then the clerk would acknowledge your very existence and say “Hi”.You pass cleaners in the hallways, and some are naturally friendly and would greet you, and some would look through you as if you are not there…This way for a few years. The owners complained to the General Manager, but nothing changed. As this is not Flori... 04/13/2018
