Your correct, it's a lot of property to take care of. It's a love/hate relationship, we love the home but it's a huge responsibility and it makes it hard for us to spend as much time as we wish we could in the Villages. I have learned the best recipe for a fun retirement is to shed as much responsibility as possible. Our whole lives have been about dealing with responsibility, retirement is about getting rid of those responsibilities and enjoying our limited remaining healthy years having fun. The home is way too big of a responsibility, but it will be very hard to someday move on from it.
