Are you saying the South didn't win the war? You sure?

If the CSA won the war The Villages wouldn't exist, Texas would have ceded from the CSA and the USA would have another third world country to its south. Yeah, the North won.

Will miss some of these snowbirds.

[redwitch]

I love snowbirds. They bring a joy, an enthusiasm we frogs no longer have. They don't take the beauty of TV for granted. I miss them when they leave, but I'm grateful for the slower times, the shorter lines, the slightly more sane driving. They help our economy tremendously. They pay year-round amenities even when not using any facility here. Imagine our community without them -- the shops that would be out of business, the restaurants that would never even consider opening here, how high our amenity fees would be without them. We should be falling over ourselves thanking them for being snowbirds. We couldn't survive without them. (And we're grateful when they leave so we can enjoy all that we have with their assistance but not their presence.)

Now, don't get me started on Yankees, being a Westener raised by a Southerner and still having family throughout the South.

We love our snowbird neighbors, we will be visiting them up north. We have become family.

Despite little disagreements, all Villagers have a strong bond.

Your snowbirds are coming this way which thrills us because most of the restaurants reopen. The economy all around is being boosted. Yet when falls arrives, we sigh with relief because parking is easier, and there are no boat trailers to watch out for.

Enjoy the peace and quiet while I will enjoy the good life on the Chesapeake Bay! See you when it cools down in TVs.

Best part of snowbirds leaving. Starting May 1st green fees drop from $55 to $24, yes they went up a $1 this year, just like every other year.
