  • My parents retired in the Sarasota area, there are a number of retirement communities there, some are on golf courses, others have different things to offer. I would check the area out, Sarasota is a lot of fun and has a lot to offer.

  • Can_t name specifics but check south florida region. It has good weather and lots of older people. Maybe like Bonita Springs or Boca Raton?

  • The Villages. Lotof crazy old people thinking thier 25 driving around in golf carts and boozin it up with the ladies. Seriously

  • There_s a book called _Retirement Places Rated_ that may be helpful to you.

  • You might look into something in Sarasota. It_s a beautiful area of the state with a lot to offer.
  • How far southwest can you go in Utah and still get awesome snow?|165560

    I am from southern Ca and want to go to a nice snowy place this year for winter vacation. I know Utah is supposed to have some of the best snow. I went to Mammoth last year which was about a six-hour drive. I am looking to not really have too much longer of a drive than that. So how good of snow conditions -- if at all -- is it near St. George, Utah?

  • You can go to Brian Head ski resort, it_s near Cedar City and has really good snow, and it_s open now, so happy shredding!

    P.S. you can check out the the website below to find out info on skiing in Utah.
  • What kind of footwear will I need in New York?|150581

    I am going to New york next week and wondering what kind of footwear will I need. I know people recommend comfortable shoes but I am planning to wear skirts mostly (good option at this time?) and dont want to wear sports shoes.

  • I would wear comfortable, covered shoes while walking and riding the subway, and something stylish when you reach your destination. The nicer pair of shoes will fit into a large purse or bag, and you can change shoes as you reach the sites you are going to visit.

  • I_d recommend against wearing flip-flops, as they_re flimsy and your feet will get gross. Anything comfortable and supportive is the way to go (closed-toe or not is up to you). Just in the normal course of events in New York, you end up doing a lot more walking than you would otherwise, so keep that in mind when you_re packing. (Skirts are definitely a good way to go in the summer.)

  • since you don_t want to wear sneakers (aka sport shoes) then the next best thing are flip flops

  • My favorites shoes for walking which do not look like sports shoes are Taryn Rose, Mephisto, Arche and Beautifeel... Try zappos.com

  • you could wear anything you want if u are wearing a skirt bring some comfortable nice sandals and u_ll be ok enjoy it_s a great city

  • I wear sandals all the time and I just ride the train and go to school, which takes me a second from the station and when I get home, my feet is dirty!! I think you should wear shoes.. like those Skechers shoes.

  • Wear some nice comfortable ballet flats since you are wearing a skirt and enjoy the city.

  • anything comfortable!

  • Take it from me, I wanted to wear shoes that looked good with my trendy skirts as well... if you spend the day out on the town in shoes not worn for comfort, you will mess up your feet, remember you have to keep up the pace walking through the City. I know it_s not your typical choice for fashion but you will see that most New Yorkers wear tennis shoes. However if you_re just going out for dinner or a play, then wear your favorite shoes.

  • Streets are dirty - wear covered shoes. You will SEE just about anything in New York - but you do not want to CATCH anything in NY! I almost NEVER wear sandals or open shoes, unless I park under Lincoln Center to see a concert or opera, and only am walking IN Lincoln Center!

    So - wear pants and a neutral shoe.
  • What is the best time to visit the Florida Keys? What is a good, inexpensive place to go?|149221

    I want to take my wife on a nice, relaxing vacation. We enjoy the outdoors and wildlife. We don_t need luxury but don_t want to be slumming it either. What are some good suggestions for activities to do? When is the best time to visit the Everglades. Summer or Winter? Is it cheaper to go summer or winter?

  • well, you definitely wouldn_t want to visit everglades in the summer, you_d be eaten alive (by bugs, and possibly alligators)
    havent been to everglades yet, but the keys are great. you can snorkel, rent kayaks or bikes, check out some of the many state parks-bahia honda is very nice

  • November through February. Fairly dry and not too hot.

  • The best time to visit anywhere in South Florida is from October through April. The weather is awesome and the threat of a major storm is nill. The prices are higher because that is the peak tourist season. Visiting any other month is a crap shoot, but one thing will be certain; it��s gonna be hot and humid. Hope this helps.
  • What are some really fun, different, and interesting tourist attractions in Wisconsin?|160612

    Hi, I am going to Wisconsin in a few days and we will be travelling around the states close to the border of Wisconsin and I was wondering if any of you could give me some suggestions of great places to go or eat, etc. Thanks so much guys!!

  • Go to Wisconsin Dells!

    _The Dells_ (as us Midwesterners call it), there are many fun things to do and see that is for all ages of people.

    Indoor and outdoor water parks.
    Golf
    Miniature Golf
    Ride the Ducks
    Go Carts
    Shows
    Museums
    Helicopter Rides
    Shopping
    are just a few things...

    Take a side trip and spend a day at the _House on the Rock_ in Spring Green WI. This will take a full day! The house with the _Infinity Room_ is cool but that_s just the tip of the iceberg for the _House_. The rest of the property features the smallest details of an intricately furnished doll house collection, to the world_s largest indoor carousel. Each exhibit is filled with the exotic, the majestic and the unexpected. All tours include the Attractions container gardens featuring 285 different types of plants.

    Go to close by Baraboo it has the World Circus Museum.

    If you go to The Dells you gotta do at least one breakfast at the Lumberjack restaurant.

  • Up around La Crosse is beautiful. You can go on a little riverboat tour of the Mississippi (I went on it and thought it would be corny, but it was very nice to be out on the river and wasn_t corny at all).
    If you drive from La Crosse up to the Twin Cities, drive along Highway 61. It_s right along the river and while it does take longer than if you take the interstate, it_s a much more scenic route.
    Milwaukee always has a lot going on. The Art Museum on the lakefront is a very neat place. I think Germanfest is also going on at the Summerfest grounds right along the lakefront, too. That_s just until July 27th, though.
    Brewers games would be fun to go to, as they_re in town until the end of the month, but tickets are almost sold out for each game. If you_re traveling in a small group, you probably won_t have too hard of a time trying to find seats, but you should go very early. Miller Park and the Brewers are definitely a fun thing to go see in Milwaukee. Even if you can_t go to a game, just driving by it is something itself.
    Milwaukee also has lots of different places to eat. Mexican, Asian, African, American, you name it.
    The Botanical Gardens in Hales Corners are also worthwhile to see.

    Sorry if that_s a lot, but I hope you enjoy your trip! :)

  • The Wisconsin Dells is a great stop. Much to do and great places to eat. Be sure to sample the Cheese Curds while in Wisconsin. Theya re sold just about everywhere and come in many varieties. My favorite stop in Wisconsin was Green Bay. You can forget trying to get a ticket to see the Packers play a home game, but the tour of Lambeau Field was great. Also, if you are there, don_t miss going through the Green Bay Packer Hall of Fame. Scenery beautiful and they have an early fall up there. Enjoy your trip!

  • I can help you more if you tell me the specific boarder...northern, southern, eastern, or western?
    Just let me know.
