Re: Live in Mexico for two weeks in winter? Posted on: Wed, 26 May 2004 13:44:41 -0500

Yep....Ive thought abt that and am not against it....tent camping that
is. However....if I could find a small cabin at a good rate that
would work as well

Well it doesn't have to be Mexico. But I definitely want to stay
somewhere that is s"summer-like" in dead of winter. Warm waters,
shorts for daily wear.

The only two places I thought it might be that warm in the US would be
the Florida Keys and maybe as you say far south Texas such as South
Padre Island. But Ive never been those places either.

Does it get THAT warm in these two US places? I just assumed Id have
to go even farther south to get THAT warm..... i.e. Mexico

How abt the Baja area? Someone in another thread mentioned Mazatlan
Mexico. Maybe that would be cheap enough?

Wow. Im curious what where you doing in that area?

>Still better than my usual winter in the Buffalo NY area -:)

Yeah no doubt! No offense but you couldn't get me to move to Buffalo
for no amt of money!!! Im in north Missouri and it gets plenty cold
and snowy here thank you. Haha
