Well thanks Accompong glad to know some of your thoughts relative to points of view. My original comments suggested finding an alternative to New England weather and the Yankee mindset. Very difficult to understand if you have never lived here. Winters can be very cold from November through May in some instances. Finding a place to go for those months would be nice. I do not think I said a 12 month resident but if permanent residency is required for more than 90 days than so be it. I have a large lot in north east New England that is beautiful in almost every way but as I previously noted would be perfect from May through November, 7 months. So if I can find Paradise South to go with Paradise North I'll be in great shape. I have lived in Jamaica several times for 6 to 8 weeks at a stretch mostly in Portland in the Mountains. From 1975 through current day I have entered JA at least 40 times the shortest stay being 2 weeks.
