I could only handle living there in the summer. I am a true Florida girl, we only have winter and summer, but some say we have spring and fall. I can not tell the difference.
I have a nephew who lives in Colorado. Last week, they had 2 feet of snow and said it was still coming down.

I hope you enjoy the warm weather and get to explore the hiking trails. Never say they can not develop it. Our state traded beautiful oak hammocks that were a nature preserve in the Withlacoochee forest for scrub timber land to a housing developer called Cabot Citrus Farms.

In Florida, a portion of the Withlacoochee State Forest was traded for timberland. Specifically, 324 acres of the forest were exchanged for 861 acres of timberland in Levy County. This swap was approved by Governor Ron DeSantis and the Florida Cabinet in June 2024. The land traded was intended to be used for expansion by Cabot Citrus Farms. I copied this from Google.

He also wants to develop other state parks with hotels and golf courses, one being Jonathan Dickinson State Park.
