Well, at least you got some great photos of your time there! Prices haven't come down, and more and more buildings have popped up since your visit, though it's still beautiful in this part of Florida. (I live not far from Sarasota.) I love the bright happy colors in your background and all the sunny flowers.

Looks like you had a good visit...Yes Florida home prices went crazy and still are pricey. Great page of memories anyway.
