Well, we are lucky in that we have our cake and eat it too. We have a Courtyard Villa in Sanibel and a home adjacent to our three kids in Missouri. We spend about 5 months in TV and the rest in the Kansas City area. We love TV, but can't see ourselves ever spending our full time there. If our children were spread out, as most are, we would probably be thrilled to be full time Villagers, but under the circumstances, we love the Villages/Missouri split. I realize that not everyone can do what we do, and feel blessed to be able to accommodate our love of family and TV. As far as regrets, it is my opinion that one needs to weigh all the relevant factors prior to making a major decision, then move forward confidently - never looking back. I have zero regrets in my life as everything I have done has led me to this point in my life and I am happy with the result.
