Default Our time finally here!

We have SOLD our home in New Your State. All inspections, appraisals complete. Buyers mortgage approved.
85% of furniture sold, the rest will be donated.
"Stuff" has been given away, tossed or donated.
Almost packed,(where in the world did I accumulate 3 boxes of shoes
Soon we will be heading down to become Frogs
It has been 5 long years with only very short lived vacations or intermediate snowflake visits. Plus, it's getting cold up North
Can't wait to begin our long awaited retirement.
We will see everyone soon! Hope to rekindle some old acquaintances and make many many new ones.

Welcome to the warm world of free golf, daily happy hours and cheap buffets.

congrats, I know the relief of finally selling. You'll love it here. I'm hanging Christmas decorations in my bare feet.

Welcome from a fellow Rochesterian. The only thing you will miss is Wegmans and maybe Abbotts custard. Enjoy your new home!

Congrats you have been at this longer than we have. We sold our home 2 years ago and bought our Villages home. We have been snowflakes while waiting to retire. That day has finally arrived. We head down at the end of this month! can't wait!!

We just became full timers last Friday! Took 2.5 years to start living our dream.

Still in the unpacking mode and why did I move this thing down? But all in good. By next week we will be out playing in the sandbox with ya'll!

Sally, you are absolutely correct, will so dearly miss Wegmans, Bill Grays and Abbotts!
