Do you have a bridge in Naples you'd like to sell us?
Oh no? Perhaps a house you'd like to unload on someone here that got whipped into a frenzy by this thread and is now driven to leave LI because of eyesores here?
Naples, FL had the same humidity as LI? Seriously, that's not even close to being possible. We had just about zero humidity on LI.
A few degrees higher? Just a tiny few ... almost imperceptible? LOL! We had average temperatures 10-15 degrees lower than 90 - 92.
Besides, 90 to 92 degrees daily is NOT comfortably liveable, humidity or not. You know that since you did admit you're "
inside by 11am."
Hiding in the house ALL DAY definitely for weeks on end,
perhaps for months on end,
as early as 11am is not everyone's cup of tea, to put it mildly. There are plenty of clean beaches here too and, bonus, we don't have to risk sunstroke to use them all day in the summer either!
It's annoying and crazy to me how some of the expats will say anything to advertise wherever they moved to, even if it is blatantly out in left field. Nobody believes it. Nobody is impressed. Just admit there are a few things down there worse than LI. Now that would impress me. For the expats, how about a list of "
a few things I actually do miss about Long Island?" That's a list I'd be interested in, since this is the Long Island forum, after all.
