I also lived in Florida from '95-'07.

From my perspective, no, you know nothing about Florida.
Well obviously, you've lived there. BUT, compared to most New Englanders, I know much more about Florida. Most New Englanders simply go to ONE trite vacation spot or Disney, when they go to Florida.

I had the exact opposite situation, after a visit as a teenager, I was thoroughly repulsed by the idea of ever living in Florida. Fast forward 40 years, retired, and staring out the window at the Jersey shore all winter, I had a sudden epiphany..... Well, there was more to it than that, but you get the idea.
