Time To Go Skiing

 

Powder in Verbier, Switzerland
Powder in Verbier, Switzerland

With the holidays behind us, it is time to get serious about skiing.  The United States has been blessed with a snow season that in some places started as early as October!

All skiers dream of powder so consider the top ten powder destinations in North America and Europe when planning your ski vacation.  Luckily there are direct flights from Miami to just about every top ski destination, so getting there should be easy.

Someone forgot to tell us that it is winter!  To all my friends, relatives, and customers who have been dealing with cold or downright miserable weather since October, come on down for a visit and thaw out.

Florida Is Expected To Outperform The U.S In 2014 and 2015

PortMiami

The economic outlook for the Sunshine State is extremely positive. TD Economics, an affiliate of TD Bank, estimates that Florida’s economic growth will grow from 2.4% this year to 3.5% in 2014 & 4.0% in 2015.  This growth is largely due to the increase in domestic in-migration, which has led us to knock New York out of the spot for third most populous state.  The growth in population is fueling demand for construction and construction workers for residential, commercial, and infrastructure projects, such as the one at PortMiami.

Perez Art Museum Miami Free This Sunday

IMG_2053If you were so busy with Art Basel and Art Miami that you missed opening week of PAMM, take the opportunity to visit it for free this Sunday.  It is a beautiful addition to Miami’s growing cultural scene.  I would recommend taking the metro  since the Frost Science Museum is still under construction.  There is a “Museum Plaza” stop on the Outer Loop.
