Just Visited Villages to See Our New Home...
Joan and I saw our new home for the first time this past weekend.* We close March 5th.* It is everything we hoped for and are very pleased.* Enjoyed the Amelia pool for a couple hours.* We 040 can't wait* 040 for my retirement which is too far off.* We'll be visiting again in May to begin setting up our new nest.* Once again, on our 4th visit to TV...this place continues to impress us greatly - the pristine newness, the high quality level of maintenance, the bright open spaces, the views, the amenities.* We are certainly looking forward to becoming full timers.*
BTW, in our 4 visits, this was the first time we encountered a grump, sitting outside the new Publix Center, waiting for his wife to come out of one of the shops, describing the summers as brutal and central Florida having grown too crowded.* He is not a resident of TV, and is a snowbird who rents near here.* I explained I lived in FL for 40 years and finally discovered, after consideratin of NC mountains for retirement, that the cold days up north are more painful than the hot days in FL.* He should be looking for a new hobby or something.
