I was watching the Golf Channel in 2003 and the 30 minute infomercial came on. At the time I was living in Baltimore but was eventually going to return to Florida where I grew up. I was familiar with the Gulf Coast since my parents retired in 1983 in Spring Hill and were in a golf course retirement community called Timber Pines. I liked how my dad could drive his cart from the garage to the course, and they had 3 courses to choose from. So when I saw the info on TV, it rang with me right away. I called and the got the VHS tape and info and then held onto the idea for 8 years until 2011 when it was time for my LSV and move that summer.
