The waiting is over! As I have mentioned in other posts, we had reserved a lot in Buttonwood. Yesterday we gave our deposit on the house and signed the contract, so we're committed to our new life in paradise. Our rep had told us it would take 60-65 days for closing. When we got the contract back, it said June 21, only 50 days! We aren't going to be full time until next year or when our house sells, what ever comes first, and had planned to come down in October to set everything up. But since we already have purchased all the new furniture and accessories, we figured we might as well come down for the closing and have the furniture delivered (I know, it doesn't make sense to buy the furniture first, but we were so excited we couldn't help ourselves). Now I don't know if any one else has ever requested this, but if anyone lives in Buttonwood or goes by my area, it would be great if they could take some pictures of the house as it's completed. I've made friends with a neighbor, but their coming down on the 18th to move in, so they'll be pretty busy. So if anyone should go by and have a camera, PM me and I'll give you my email address. The house address is 1928 Harding Path. Hopefully I can return the favor someday!(or at least have you over for martinis)
