Too funny 😄. We spend winters in Sarasota and I’m sure the locals here feel the same as you. In Virginia Beach we’re inundated with tourists from early spring thru late fall. Then we come down here for the winter and experience crowded roads, restaurants and beaches, just like home in the summer. Warm and dry has its price.
Last October we went to Pigeon Forge for a week. Visited my cousin while there. She said the locals call us “leafers” because of the October tourist crush. We didn’t go there for the fall colors, but it was obvious from the crowds that the nickname fit.
