     Imagine a little piece of Greece transplanted to the northern part of Pinellas County Florida . The delightful town of Tarpon Springs, which has a population of around 20,000 is famous for its unique Greek heritage and culture. It also has the distinction of being the oldest town in the St Petersburg / Tampa Bay area.

     The first Greek immigrants were attracted to the area during the 1800s when they were employed in the thriving sponge industry. The town was given its name after residents spotted fish jumping out of the water and in 1905 sponge diving was introduced to the town. By 1930, millions of dollars a year were being generated by the sponge industry.

While the rest of the country is feeling the effects of frigid winter temperatures, here in the Tampa Bay area of Florida we are enjoying warm sunny days with temperatures averaging 75 degrees this week.  It's mid February! 

Last week we had a cold spell come in and temperatures dropped to the 40s and 50s and you would have thought it was going to snow here.  Floridians were not happy.  Most stayed inside with the heat on. We were quite miserable.  Thank goodness that only happens once or twice a year!

Some people from the north would laugh at us but most of us moved here because we really hate the cold or just can't take the cold extreme northern temperatures anymore.  It's certainly not for everyone but if you have been thinking that it's time to move…

Florida’s Gulf Coast is home to some of the most beautiful beaches in the world, a fact that rightly earns it the nickname of ‘Florida’s Beach’.
