Congratulations, and “welcome home”. I know the feeling and after 16 years of owning, and 12 years of retirement and living here, I get it. Each time I have been away ( 4 months each summer) and I return home, I drive through the gate…its the same feeling all over again. In these years, I have seen many changes in the Villages, some I like, some I dont, BUT, for us, we still love it here, love our home on a quiet street that faces the farm fields, and allows us to hop in that golf cart everyday and continue to enjoy our retirement. We still do the drive, we spend three days on the road and break up the 20 hour trip. We enjoy seeing different parts of the sea shore on our way north taking up to 3 weeks to get home, but what the heck, we arent in a hurry and some days we only travel 2 hours to our next hotel…LOL. We plan it all out, 6 months in advance and enjoy seeing all that we see. Enjoy your new home….where did you buy? So much fun and if you need anything, ask around as we all were “newbies” at some point. Enjoy.
