Who says that living in Trailer Parks in Florida is bad?

BRINY BREEZES -- The Briny Breezes board of directors has reached an agreement to sell the mobile-home community to Boca Raton-based Ocean Land Investments for $510 million.

The board voted unanimously to accept the offer at a meeting with property owners Tuesday afternoon.

The contract now requires approval by 67 percent of the property owners by Jan. 10.

The deal covers the sale of all 488 home sites on the 43-acre mobile home community. If approved, the contract sets the closing date for March 10, 2009. The date could be extended by one year.

The money from the sale would be divided among the property owners and will make the owners of the trailer lots millionaires.

4. These are mostly elderly folks who have lived there for years.

As I recall they have turned down big bucks before.

7. If they stay in that same area after selling a million bucks won't go very far.

Looks like some of their places still have blue tarps over their roofs. Leftovers from the hurricanes that went through the area.

I'd sell if I lived there just to get out of the same neighborhood as Limpbore and Coultergeist.
