Cabot's Pueblo is real, but it's in California.
And it's not a real pueblo...the top two floors are mostly false fronts.
Amazing what poetic license can do.
Some people feel obligated to comment on anything they see posted. Unfortunately the world is upside down right now and people are looking for hope. Sometimes they want to shed their negativity by passing it to others. I have found that looking for positive things to photograph and post seem to bring out the best in people. Rather than talking about the good Florida has to offer, I would post photos of it as a picture speaks a thousand words.
Of course you may get photo critics. Such as some who walk the hallways of UHH. But take the critical points and try and improve the photography.
Life is full of choices and some people just don't know how to make good choices let alone choose their words wisely.
A good friend of mine told me a long long time ago... "If you don't have something nice to say... don't say it at all." That has worked for me.
I was talking about Cabot Cove, Maine in the TV Series Murder she wrote. The set is actually in Mendochino, California.

While we were in the moving process and after we moved to Florida I was in some groups about moving to Florida. I put up with the negativity then because I was looking for information. Now that we've moved I'm there to help those looking to move to Florida. Unfortunately, there are a number of nabobs of negativity who have to complain about how bad they have it in Florida, be it traffic, the heat, bugs, or whatever. Then telling people not to move to Florida for whatever reason they have.
I've already left a few of them because of this....but it still frustrates me. Yeah...I know I'm old and this is what the inter webs has become.
Please resume your normal programming.

Does that mean they don't have heavy traffic, heat or bugs?

On a positive note then:
Reasons to move to Florida-
• No state income tax
• Water soaks right into the ground after a rain
• Super easy to install (dig) for a sprinkler system (It's all sand)
• Most houses are ranchers
• Houses are all electric
• No snow shoveling
• Hurricanes thin the trees for you
• You meet all kinds of drivers on the road
• Car engine thermostats stick open, not closed
• You can cook lunch on the dash in a car
• You can learn how life was like in other states
• ...
B+!

You will have to accept the fact that you can't go back to any home because of getting old. I can sit down and recall places that I have been to. I know that what I encountered then is no longer there because of the passage of time. Happens to all of us.
I, for one, will not move to Florida for reasons that are mine. I will say that the boardwalks I enjoyed years ago are not there now.
