We all look forward to our retirement. I'm sure someday you would want to wake up in the morning without having to rush for work, but instead enjoy a piece of paradise, away from the bustling city, frolic in the sun and play golf. Aah, beautiful to picture out, isn't it? It's actually not at all impossible. Situated on 600 acres of a barrier island lies the close-knit, family-oriented Orchid Island Properties,where the possibilities of living in fun and luxury with your family are seemingly endless.

I was captivated with the vast expanse of beautiful houses nestled in a huge golf course, which were actually just in close proximity to the beach. Who wouldn't want to live in a paradise like that? From now on, I'm going to have hubby buy more lottery tickets to increase our chances of winning, that way we could buy our own piece of paradise in this area, lol! (j/k) Seriously though, this is such an amazing place. If you combine exquisite residences with nature, it's like the epitome of living life to the fullest. It makes me wonder if they have vacation houses for rent in this area. We cannot afford to live here but you know a day or two may be possible. Oh well, there's still time to save folks. You never know!

I'm not sure why but I love looking for houses online. I mean obviously we don't need to buy another one because we just bought one, but I still find myself googling about properties for sale at just about any cities in the U.S. This is actually how I find this one. I almost fell out of my chair laughing when I saw the asking prices though, lol! Well, I guess it's free to dream, right? And it's absolutely free to browse online either, lol! Just saying!

How would you like to own a grandiose property like this? I would love to live in a house like this. But it looks like it's out of our price range, just because it is, lol! Well, this is a multi-million dollar home that I came across in fort lauderdale homes for sale waterfront properties online.You might wonder where is Fort Lauderdale located. It's actually in South Florida, a piece of paradise by the ocean seemingly unaffected by the harsh winter season in other parts of the country. Don't blame me if I had imagined living in this state. I mean who wouldn't have? The still wintery weather in the spring time here in Montana just gets to me sometimes. So even if it's just in my dreams, allow me to indulge in my own little fantasy land, lol!


I have never been to Florida but this is one of the future destinations that my family would love to visit one of these days. The vast stretch of sunkissed beaches with fine, powdery white sands is just too hard to resist. Definitely a perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of big cities. Not to mention the world famous Disney World can also be found in this state. It can be pretty expensive to take a vacation here but a little bit of saving here and there, it's absolutely doable. I actually have a friend that lives in the Fort Lauderdale area, so it would be the best time to go see her as well.
