'I hate Florida!' How the coronavirus convinced one snowbird to fly back home

My thoughts exactly!


We get dozens of tipshere at NJ Advance Media, and during the coronaviruscrisis, most of them are pretty darn depressing. Death. Illness. Unemployment. These are difficult times, and the story ideas we receive from readers reflect that.Then, in the middle of all that darkness last week, came a “tip” that began like this:“I’m moving BACK TO JERSEY!! Yep. You read that right. Very hopefully in June. It means that much to me to get out of Florida. Moving here was the biggest mistake of my life!”
