As a true southerner who has roots in Louisiana and Texas I miss the south. The friendliness and openness of southerners is what attracts so many people to its way of life. We do not live in TV but I wish we did. We have visited often and I am continuingly trying to get my wife to move there. She loves TV also, but a son and his family have us located in N.C. We are in a Del Webb retirement community near Raleigh. It is ok but it is a blue state and some of the people who moved here fleeing high prices are making the same political choices which ruined the places they fled. The infrastructure of our community is not as good or well maintained as TV. Taxes and prices are going up and we will soon resemble failed northeastern states. We have looked at many retirement communities around the south and southeast and there are none to match TV. Even though we do not live there, to me it feels like home.
