Same for us.
We retired last fall and spent 6 months at our home in TV and loved it. Our plan was to keep our Indiana home for 2 summers and do the 6 and 6 thing.
But after being back in Indiana for only a month we were already bored and missing TV. We also decided 6 months is too long here. Yes, we got to see the kids and the grands, but that's not enough for us since we like to stay active and busy.
Plus, keeping up 2 homes was more work and hassle than I anticipated. When we were in TV I worried about our home here, and when we're here I worry about our home there.
We decided we don't need a home to come visit for a couple weeks at a time. So we put our house here in Indiana up for sale. They start showing it tomorrow. Our plan is to rent an Airbnb when we want to come back here to visit.
That said, our good friends just bought a home in TV and plan on doing 6 and 6.
