Everyone Settled Into 2010?

Well, we have had the weekend to adjust to the start of not only a new year, but also a new decade! It seems much of the attention has been focused on bowl games and the unseasonable cold weather plaguing the country. To be honest, temperatures in in Tampa Bay are not reaching past the mid-50's!

Fortunately, cold snaps in our area do not linger long and milder temps are just on the horizon. The big news here is all the arrivals of our northern friends! How do we recognize them? That is easy... first, the license plates from all the different states, Canada and Nova Scotia on SUV's loaded with supplies to land for the winter. Secondly, the groups walking around in shorts and t-shirts in 50 degree weather... or even swimming in the 65 degree Gulf of Mexico!!! Burrr...

Which brings about an interesting fact that the Gulf can swing 20 degrees in temperature! In the heat of the summer, it can be like bath water in the mid-80's. Then, cool off to the current mid-60's range in December and January! Definitely nice to have a heated pool at this time. No worries, though. By the time Spring Break comes, temperatures will have moderated enough for swimmers to enjoy the gulf.

There are still openings at many of our rental properties to come and enjoy a break from the harsh winter. And shortly, we will actually be adding a 5th member to The PURTEE Team to focus full time on rental property!
