We knew all about the Kool-Aid but this was water. The realtor got us another glass after that was gone. My mind blurred.

The next thing I knew I was back at home and awoke clutching a contract for a west-facing lanai house to be built on a golf course for 50% more than our absolute limit!!

I had wanted to buy in St. James but that doesn't yet exist. However, we will be in the village named after my grandfather; at least I think that's what the realtor said.
Bless your little hearts. A lot of us have had a shot of that. It is one drink I don't regret.

Welcome. May you enjoy every day of a thousand years with us here in Paradise.
