We went to more parties in the 7 days we were there than we did in two years here in Vermont. Everyone we met was so friendly. Most folks we spoke to say there are not enough hours in the day to do all the activities they would like. TV provided us with guest tickets to a show at Savannah, the movie theater and a few others we did not have time for. Got lost on the golf cart going to open houses, stop and take out a map and someone will stop and help. Be sure and go to Eisenhower Rec Center (Rohan was not built yet), spend some time at the squares. We are not yet TV residents but will be as soon as we manage to sell our Vermont property. We met with the agent that treated our friends really well, Carl Pheil, 352-753-2270. Have fun, we did!
You will appreciate that the reason we only have 4 days is then I head off to Vermont to visit my daughter for some sort of award ceremony. This is her last year of school there. I'll miss my visits to Vermont.
