I admit that I do have a morning routine. I wake up naturally predawn, make coffee, check emails, drink coffee, see whats happening in the world from my online news sources and then the good part comes!Second cup of coffee happens at sunrise outside at poolside surrounded by peace and quiet as nature wakes up. The great thing about living in the tropics is that I can do this just about everyday of the year.South Florida is where summer spends the winter, I saw that on an advertisment when I was 9 years old growing up in NY. It will be 40 years next week since I left those cold winters behind me and never regretted missing one!  Isn't it time you made your move? Just call me, I'll do the rest. 02/26/2017
