Patty:

Thanks. for clarification. Oh it is near the beach, that probably explains 
the cost. I know in Florida prices really have tanked and its a difficult 
time to move and sell homes. We have great sunny weather, 60 miles to Gulf 
and Coast...30 minutes to a University town (Gainesville), 1 1/2 hours to 
Orlando..yet rural, quiet and lovely. I have family and friends in 
California and use to live in the Bay area, and am seriously considering 
moving back ...but as you can tell, affordability is an issue.....just don't 
need nor want such big places etc.

Where are you going to catch trout everyday? Northern California; Russian 
River area? Sounds great, cabin near a river etc.
