This will be the culmination of our journey to TV that started about 3 years ago. We are Pittsburgh, PA natives (I understand there are a few others here) and we had very good friends that moved into Pinellas. Of course they loved it and encouraged us to take a look. Long story short: a day trip up from Disney World led to the LifeStyle stay and several subsequent visits.. found our dream home on Florahome Way, drank the kool-aid, and the rest is our new history.

We are currently going crazy doing the normal things... managing the move, looking for new STUFF for the new home, sorting out what services to use and which ones to avoid, figuring out which golf cart to buy, etc. etc. all of which will be well worth the effort when we finally pull in the driveway.

We absolutely love Lake Deaton, we have been blessed with terrific neighbors, have one of the best set of views in TV and, thus far have had wonderful interactions with all of the people and places.

We are "stoked"... just wanted to give everyone fair warning... we are on our way!!!

Congrats. Best wishes as you start living the dream.

BTW - It's worth making "final arrangements" to get here, as opposed to, the other final arrangements.
