How Big Should My Backyard Be?

Image
Welcome to Florida. I grew up in a city, a big one, and when I was small, thought my family were farmers because our yard was almost a 1/4 of an acre!  Huge!  Other kids would want to come over to play because we had several trees, not just one.  Unheard of in our neighborhood. Fast forward a few decades and I'm selling real estate in Florida and many folks who move here bemoan the small size of their yard. Sometimes people overlook the fact that smaller, can also mean more cost effective.  But, if you think your child needs lots of room to play you can always live on a golf course.  Even if you don't golf.  It's a great deal and someone else pays for the trees....   Rocky's First Concert Big Yard Home Search

Do Floridians Love Disney?

Welcome to Florida. The first visit to Florida many folks have experienced revolves around Disney World.  I love all the theme parks, think the Universal is great, can't wait to visit Legoland with a two year old but, still, what about the Mighty Mouse? OK, here's the inside scoop. We all LOVE MICKEY! Seriously, our son has never been to the park, hasn't seen a cartoon and doesn't own a stuffed Mickey but, has a Mickey car which he loves.  He knew who Mickey was before we told him.  I don't know, maybe it's magic, maybe it's because Walt kind of build Florida but yes, we all love the mouse.... .....and so should you.
