House Hunting Along the Dixie Highway

We were at the Florida end of the Dixie Highway (I-75) this weekend house hunting. We took advantage of off-season airfare. The housing market in Florida is as slow as in the Midwest. That helps even the playing field for us. We were able to narrow down price ranges and what areas that we liked. There was one house that we would have put an offer on if our house were sold. On our next trip we'll look at different types of property such as condos and townhouses instead of single family houses.

We stayed with Grandma Apple and had a good time. The weather was great. I was in shorts. (When we left Detroit it was snowing.) It was nice to sit on a veranda by the beach and watch the world go by.
