This is my wife and my first year here as snow birds. We came down here to rent a piece of property to spend the winter, and ended up purchasing it because the price was impossible to walk away from. Besides it's much cheaper to drive down here, and not have to haul a big rig every year (fuel costs are going out of sight). We planned to leave about the middle of March but that has changed since the cost of living here has gone down(no rent).

Can you give us some idea when the so called spring break takes place here in Florida. We have done a few trips to the beach's with almost no luck, unless you can call the usual trash, 5 toy trucks from one hole, a dozen coins, and one junk ear ring great finds. Would like to take at least one nice piece of gold home. Got to keep the little lady happy.

Any help will be appreciated. Rick :coffee2:[/b]

usually starts last week Feb to first week in Apr.
you can do a google search that will actually give you all colleges time off
here is one site

thing is - driving travel is crazy especially on weekends
get down there at sun rise and get out before 11am
you get on the road after 9am - might as well pack plenty of
drinks and food - cause youll probably be sitting in traffic some where off the beach for hrs

good luck
