It seems to me that many people move to TV, thinking a couple of things. First, that what they see now will always be. It's almost like they ignore the fact that things change. Second, that whatever choice they make for where they live will be permanent. And if that choice is wrong, or changes, that they somehow did something wrong.
We will be moving to TV in just over three months. We think our eyes are wide open to all the possibilities. One of those possibilities is that at some point, we may decide that TV is just not for us. I highly doubt it, but it is possible. We're trying to enter retirement looking at it as an adventure, knowing we will make some good choices and some bad ones. It's all part of the process.
I'm pretty sure that the southern area, Fenney, DeSoto, McLure, et al, will be much different in five years than what they are now. Ten years, they may be unrecognizable. When they started Fenney, I read the posts saying, "Yeah, but where are the golf courses?". Well, so far there are four. And it's less than two years into it. I think the folks who chose to live down there right now will be rewarded with a fantastic experience, it will just take some time and patience.
From our research, and visits to TV, we know that there are good points as well as bad. Just like anywhere else. We choose to keep a positive outlook.
Hope I haven't offended anyone, and if I did, I apologize.
