We've been living in Florida for the past 30+ years and do not think of ourselves as Snowbirds, though summer usually finds us someplace in Canada or Alaska.

Yesterday we were talking to a group of admitted Snowbirds heading back to Massachusetts for the summer.

Since the last few winters have been very cold with killing frost, we decided to spend the winter in Mexico. We had a grand time surrounded by nice Mexican people and many, many Canadians from British Columbia, Alberta, and Ontario. Two campers from the US were the only Americans we met in almost four months.

So, if I'm really not a Snowbird, what am I?

Not sure why you're saying your NOT a snowbird. Seems to me you meet the criteria right down the line.

I think you are what's known as Migratory Man.
