I did absolutely NO research because I was NOT going to retire in Florida. My parents did and I thought it was bore-ing! Sweetie,who is my darling husband wanted to have a house in Florida, but I did not.
We just stopped for an overnight visit with old friends who had a winter home in Poinciana (one of the villages) and I lost my heart, my sense, and all prior ideas on the subject.
I have been to almost every area in Florida. I have enjoyed South Beach, West Palm, Sanibel Island, Sarasota and have seen Mickey Mouse more than I have fingers and toes. All of those mentioned were my favorite spots for a vacation, but I wouldn't want to LIVE there.
Well, that was until I entered the purified air of The Villages and began to meet some sweet, sassy, smart, silly, serious, serene, smarmy, sage, Southern, senile, stunning, superior and social folks who would become my friends. (you know who you are)
I dare you to find anything to compare. I dee double dare you!
