we expect to have friends and family visit, and also hope to be invited to visit them. Several couples we know are currently looking for retirement homes, and I am sure they will not all end up in The Villages. We think that's fine, always fun to travel ourselves. One already has a summer cottage in northern Wisconsin (still working) and we plan to visit them this summer. Another couple may end up in Tennessee as that will be a day's drive to where their kids live. We're looking forward to friends living in other retirement (or non-retirement) communities. We think the Villages is the best for us, but variety is the spice of life!

We will encourage them to rent their own golf cart for the weekend/week. I've also decided it's too generous (except for our kids/grandkids) for us to offer to pick them up at an airport if they're not driving. Once was enough of that. They can rent a car or take the shuttle - I'll be happy to pick them up at either Spanish Springs or Lake Sumter Landing!
