I'll do a check of Palm Coast.
After some discussion, we're very much leaning toward Crystal River in Florida (near the Withlacoochee State Trail).
TimothyH: Savannah is my wife's Second Favorite City. She agrees that what you caution about the weather is correct. "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil" is one of my favorite movies.
Iride01: I've had the same feeling when I've gone to Florida. Don't know if that's good or bad, but it's comfortable. My wife will love meeting and talking to former Hoosiers or vacationing Hoosiers, but I'm on the edge of being anti-social and don't really care as long as I can make some enjoyable rides.
Rutan74: St. George Island is a place I definitely want to check out, both online and in person. Even if we decide to go someplace else for the winter, I'll be sure to make a detour there. Thanks for the great info.
FWIW, here is a pic the day we got there in late September. It was like 3 in the afternoon on a Sunday.
