To me, Florida is very out of the way.
I hope to never have to visit the land of snakes, bugs and alligators.
Maine is right next door, the land of the New England Forest Rally (July 14-15), Andover Old Home Days (tanks and other military vehicles on parade), great OHRV and snowmobile trails and of course, Marden's.
The only drawback to Maine is its' greedy, rich, leftist, extremist, white supremacist, bigoted, racist, fascist, NAZI democrat politicians, along with their RINO senators.
Florida? Spent 3 1-2 years there, courtesy of the USAF. Snakes and ‘gators were the least objectionable things.
And it gets colder than penguin poop.
