We live in the mountains of Utah, but have always dreamed of a home in Florida. Dave was born and raised in Utah, but attended school on the east coast where he dicovered the magic of Florida. Cailtin was born and raised in Ohio so spent her vacations with family traveling to Florida, joing up with her extended family from Atlanta area. Florida was and is the perfect gathering place for family and friend adventures. Our grown daughters help manage our properties, while our young son and grandkids keep us on the move and make sure there are always lots of water toys and adventures to the local beaches, or even occasionally convincing us to make trips to the local amusement parks. So far Legoland near Tampa is the kids favorite, although the local Weeki Wachee Springs State Park and the mermaid show is a staple for every trip for us. We love sharing our place in Florida and hearing about the adventures and experiences of our guests. When we are not in Florida, we are busy in Utah running a BBQ restaurant, commercial properties, and a catering company, plus enjoying snowmobiling and skiing in the mountains.
